Thanks but i much prefer Charles Aznavour singing that one !
Cheers
I have been a rover, sailed the seven seas
Bonked a hundred Shelia’s, brought them to their knees
Still in all I am happy, the reason is you see,
Once in a while along the way life’s been good to me.
There was a girl in Auckland in 1964
I think I must have bonked her against the kitchen door,
She said I would like to cook you breakfast
Before your ship sets sail,
I said I did not have the time, as I may end in jail.
There was a girl in Cape Town before the winter chill
She liked to go a screwing way up on Signal Hill,
She could bring tears to a glass eye, and have you at her will,
Just as well for all concerned that she was on the pill.
I have been a rover, sailed the seven seas
Bonked a hundred Shelia’s brought them to their knees
Still in all I am happy, the reason is you see
Once in a while along the way life’s been good to me
There was a girl in Rio who used to call me Jack
She had these lovely long legs would almost break your back,
And she could fill you full of passion, and leave you on the floor,
Then slowly whisper in your ear now close the bloody door.
I have been a rover, sailed the seven seas
Bonked a hundred Shelia’s, brought them to their knees
Still in all I am happy, the reason is you see
Once in a while along the way life’s been good to me.
With all due apologies to old Blue eyes, the only one who could really sing this one with conviction
Wonderful verse a gift, thanks for sharing
it with us.

This is the one I referred to as wonderful
verse, the other one is very clever and amusing.
That is your new words for my way
It was not so much a girl in every port, more to do with the Port in the girl.
Here in Oz there is a port by the name of Le Gopner Port, said to pork just about every time.
This Thread is a good one and although a bit of a Joke i am posting here, but feel that it could well relate to the Joke Thread posted by JS called Fred!! LOL
People used to say to me when I was at sea Ï suppose youvë got a girl in every Port to which I replied No because i have not been to every Port
That is the most moving poem I have ever read and pleased to say I can relate to most of the ports of call. When you look back it was a wonderful life for young lads. I joined the Javanese Prince in Manchester in Oct 1960 we loaded in Hamburg Rotterdam & Dunkirk through Suez bunkers in Aden (Steamer Point) then loaded tea in Trincomale. Onto Freemantle Melbourne Sidney & Brisbane then over to N.Z. to Timaru Dunedan Auckland & Wellington (is Ma Gleesons still there) . From N.Z. across the Pacific through the Panama & bunkers in Curacao back to the U.K. discharged part cargo in Hull then to London where we paid off. I was 17 when we left uk & 18 when I returned what a trip away for just over six months. (Its on record Iam the only Merchant Seaman to loose his Cherry 3 times in Ma Gleasons ) P.S. Please exscuse the spelling mistakes. Colin Doran R709557
#39 Ma Gleasons wasnt there when across about 5 years ago. Most locals didn"t know what I was talking about. JS
