Shanty for Lust

Solo

We came to port far from home

the timing couldn’t be better

the sun is out the girls are here

time to unwind

and even though we have a wonderful family at home

we’ll drink and dance and show ourselves

for tonight all we want is....

Chorus

His touch, her touch

my own touch with purpose

see skin, taste lips

sing sounds of pleasure

one whore, two whores

we’re running through our wages

live lust, love lust

until we leave the port

Solo

We board the ship we sail her home

awaiting the smiles of loved ones

but on the way we see a town

time to unwind

and even though we’re close to home and family and love.

we’ll stay the night and fool around

because all we really want is....

Chorus

His touch, her touch

my own touch with purpose

see skin, taste lips

sing the sounds of pleasure

one whore, two whores

we’re running through our wages

live lust, love lust

until we leave the port

Solo (remorsefully and slow)

We made it home with all our guilt

our families they barely know us

the wife is home the kids in bed

time to unwind

and even though they haven’t known all of our sinful deeds

we’ll change our life for our wives

but every time we sail the seas......

Chorus

it’ll be

His touch, her touch

my own touch with purpose

see skin, taste lips

sing the sounds of pleasure

one whore, two whores

we’re running through our wages

live lust, love lust

until we leave the port

live lust, love lust

until we leave the port

live lust, love lust

until we leave the port
