Verse ii

Same Chords)

All a-drifting, he's the nogood boyo

Sent a-fishing for a whalebone corset frame

(The only catch all day)

So he sits and lets the current take him

A gentle breeze will leave his pants in disarray

And at his ankles laid.

As he drifts to sleep with a moan and a weep

He is decked by a Japanese geisha with a garland of pearls

How she twists and twirls!
