Standing on the corner with the lowdown blues
A great big hole in the bottom of my shoes
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
Or I won't be your little man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
Look it here Sal, I know you
Run down stocking and a wore out shoe
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
Or I won't be your little man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
Down in the wildwood sitting on a log
Finger on the trigger and an eye on the hog
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
Or I won't be your little man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
Well I Pulled the trigger and the gun set go
The shot gun over in Mexico
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
Or I won't be your little man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
Salty down now
Let me be your salty dog
Or I won't be your little man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
Or I won't be your little man at all

(banjo intro of song's verse)
Standing on the corner with the low down blues
a great big hole in the bottom of my shoe
honey let me be your salty dog
Let me your salty dog or I wont be your man at all
honey let me be your salty dog
(banjo instrumental of the verse)
well looky here sall' I know you
a run down slipper and a blow'd out shoe
honey let me be your salty dog
Let me your salty dog or I wont be your man at all
honey let me be your salty dog
(Fiddle instrumental of the verse)
Down in the wilds by the sycamore log
a singing a song call'd salty dog
honey let me be your salty dog
Let me your salty dog or I wont be your man at all
honey let me be your salty dog
(Honky tonk piano instrumental of the verses )
pulled the trigger the gun let go
the shot fell over in mexico
honey let me be your salty dog
Let me your salty dog or I wont be your man at all
honey let me be your salty dog
(Mandolin instrumental of the verse)
Let me your salty dog or I wont be your man at all
honey let me be your salty dog
Let me your salty dog or I wont be your man at all
honey let me be your salty dog
(banjo finish of da dit da da daaaaa )

Let me be your salty dog
I won't be your man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
I can see you standing there
I just gotta stop and stare
Honey let me be your salty dog
If you'd only speak to me
I'd be happy as could be
Honey let me be your salty dog
I can't think of what to say
You just make me feel that way
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
I won't be your man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
If you wanna see this boy
Jumpin' up and down for joy
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
I won't be your man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog
I can't buy you diamond rings
But there's always other things
Honey let me be your salty dog
I can see you by my side
If you'd only be my bride
Honey let me be your salty dog
Please don't leave me in the cold
Won't you take this band of gold
Honey let me be your salty dog
Let me be your salty dog
I won't be your man at all
Honey let me be your salty dog

Nick Reynolds/Bob Shane/John Stewart
I got a gal, she's ten feet tall, sleeps in the kitchen with her feet in the hall. Honey, let me be your salty dog.
There was two old ladies sittin' in the sand, each one wishin' the other was a man. Honey, let me be your salty dog.
Chorus:
If I can't be your salty dog, I won't be your man at all. Honey, let me be your salty dog.
I smile when you go into town. Now I'm sorry that your car broke down. Honey, let me be your salty dog.
You told me that your wheel was broke. Now I'm sittin' with a broken spoke. Honey, let me be your salty dog.
(Chorus)
I love you in blue and I love you in red but most of all I love you in blue. Honey, let me be your salty dog.
Floatin' down the river on an old oak log. What the hell's a salty dog? Honey, let me be your salty dog.
(Chorus)
I think we better call this the end of this song 'cause it's a-getting' too damn long. Honey, let me be your salty dog.

All hands on deck
We're all afloat
I heard the captain cry
Explore the ship
Replace the cook
Let no one leave alive
Across the straits
Around the Horn
How far can sailors fly
The twisted path
Our tortured course
And no left alive
We sailed for parts
Unknown to man
Where ships come home to die
No lofty peak
No fortress bold
Could match our captain's eye
Upon the seventh
Seasick day
We made our port of call
The sun so white
And the sea so blue
No mortal place at all
We fired the gun
And burned the mast
And rode from ship to shore
The captain cried
We sailors wept
But our tears were tears of joy
How many moons
And how many Junes
Have passed since we made love
A salty dog
And a seaman's log

Salty dog, salty dog
I don't wanna be your Annie doll
Honey let me be your salty dog
Candy man
Two old maids sittin' in the sand
One were a she
The other were a man
Salty dog, candy man
Worst day I ever had in my life
My best friend caught him kissin' his wife
Salty dog, candy man
Salty dog, salty dog
I don't wanna be your Annie doll
Honey let me be your salty dog

I'll wait for you till I turn blue
There's nothin' more a man can do
Don't get your bollocks in a twist
Settle down, don't take a fit
Ya drank with demons straight form Hell
They almost nearly won as well
Ya wiped the floor with victory
Then puked until you fell asleep
Blackened was the banshee's wail
These boot will never fill her jail
So you crawled into an empty boat
For the Gulf of Mexico
Till Cortez came an' when so did you
From the ashes charred and blue
Smellin' like a Salty Dog
Back from Hell where you belong
Anarchy, the scourge of every sea
The Antichrist aboard a rig
With us your cutthroat thieves
The ship went down we all near drowned
Ya stood there on the deck
Till the Spanish came and flogged yer arse
And dragged you from the wreck
They threw a rope around yer neck
To watch you dance the jig of death
Then left ya for the starvin' crows
Hoverin' like hungry whores
One flew down plucked out yer eye
The other he had in his sights
Ya snarled at him, said leave me be

We could recognize our faults
We could admit when we’re wrong
We could try to talk things out
Instead of yelling from the wells of our lungs
But we don’t
But we don’t
We could try and patch things up
Siphon out the bad blood
We could set our pride aside
Ignore our egos for the night
And make love
But we won’t
But we won’t
But we won’t
We won’t
We insist we’ll be all right
These wounds will heal themselves with time
All we have to do
Is stick it through a few more months
And we’ll be fine
But we know
But we know
But we know
We know
You could finally tell me off
But I got a feeling you won’t
You keep lying to yourself
But the truth is you’re afraid of letting go
So let go
So let go
Let go

You salty dog
Hey, hey, hey, you salty dog
Said, the big fish, little fish swimmin' in the water
Come back here, man, gimme my quarter
Says, God made a woman, he made 'em mighty funny
The lips 'round her mouth, just as sweet as any honey
Hey, hey, hey, you salty dog
Said, the scardest I ever was in my life
Uncle Bud like to caught me kissin' his wife
Hey, hey, you salty dog
[Incomprehensible]
You salty dog

Now just one thing : that worry my mind
All of these womens : ain't none of them mine
Scaredest I ever been : in my life
Old Uncle Bud liked to caught me : kissing his wife
Now big fish little fish : playing in the water
Come on back here man : and give me my quarter
Just like looking for a needle : in a bed of sand
Just try to find a woman : ain't got no man
Says God made a woman : and he made her mighty funny
The lips around her mouth : just sweet as any honey
Old Uncle Bud : he's a man like this

We could recognize our faults
We could admit when we're wrong
We could try to talk things out
Instead of yelling from the wells of our lungs
But we don't
But we don't
We could try and patch things up
Siphon out the bad blood
We could set our pride aside
Ignore our egos for the night
And make love
But we won't
But we won't
But we won't
We won't
We insist we'll be all right
These wounds will heal themselves with time
All we have to do
Is stick it through a few more months
And we'll be fine
But we know
But we know
But we know
We know
You could finally tell me off
But I got a feeling you won't
You keep lying to yourself
But the truth is you're afraid of letting go
So let go
So let go
