I once met a man from Kalamazoo Who bore on his arm an anchor tattoo One day his lover Ran off with his brother Whatever was the poor man to do? He sat down on a bus bound for Georgia But somehow he wound up in Maine And there he said ***** it." He pretty well blew it And got on a boat bound for Spain When the captain was making his rounds He saw the man grinding coffee grounds And he saw the mans ink And he stopped to think "Is that man a part of the crew?" That's when the captain's daughter came up And asked the man if he could spare a cup When the man met her eye He nearly did die For the beautiful woman he spied
