Testo Saro Jane - Odetta

Saro Jane

I’ve got a wife and five little chillun
Believe I’ll take a trip on the big MacMillan
Oh, Saro Jane!
Nothin' to do but to sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
'Tain't nothin' to do but sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane!
You better get a-runnin' when the whistle down blow!
Did you know the captain nearly fell overboard?
Oh, Saro Jane!
Nothin' to do but to sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
'Tain't nothin' to do but sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane!
Engine gave a crack, whistle gave a squall
Engineer gone to the Hole-in-the-Wall
Oh, Saro Jane!
Nothin' to do but to sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
'Tain't nothin' to do but sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane!
Yankee built boats for to shoot them rebels
My guns are loaded and, oh, she’s leveled
Oh, Saro Jane!
Nothin' to do but to sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
'Tain't nothin' to do but sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane!
I’ve got a wife and five little chillun
Believe I’ll take a trip on the big MacMillan
Oh, Saro Jane!
Nothin' to do but to sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
Rock about, my Saro Jane
'Tain't nothin' to do but sit down an' sing an'
Rock about, my Saro Jane!
