Sail on, sail on, ahw baby, sail on
Sail on, sail on, ahw baby, sail on
I don't mind you sailing, but please don't sail so long
Oh boys, now don't you want to ride with me
Oh boys, now don't you want to ride with me
I've got the best sailor in this world you ever seen
Going away, going away but I ain't gonna stay
Going away, going away but I ain't gonna stay
'Cause that sailor you got, I sees it each and every day
Sail on, sail on, ahw baby, sail on
Sail on, sail on, ahw baby, sail on
You gonna keep a-sailing, till you find your mama gone

Note: Memphis Minnie's version of the Bumble Bee Slim blues standard Sail On, Little Girl, Sail On. The little girl became a sailor in her version, the first and last verse were present in the original version.
