guy clark - eamon lyrics
eamon swallowed anchor and stepped himself ash0r-
set seaboot down on cobblestone he’d never trod before
a lone fog on the harbour did obscure the rigging lights
and the terra firma tavern cast a warm and glowing light
sing fare thee well
calm seas or swell
red evening sky
home and dry
eamon went to sea for life the day he turned fourteen
on a merchant cargo steamer bound for kwajalein
by way of cartagena he wound up in istanbul
nineteen times around the h-rn would make a dutchman drool
chorus
now eamon headed inland till he could not smell the sea
where they’d never seen a boat that’s where he went to be
and they dressed him in his peacoat pulled his seaboots on
st-tched him in his hammock and sent him sailing home
chorus
sing fare thee well
calm seas or swell
just close your eyes
home and dry
