I’M A PORTUGUESE SAILOR, WITH AN EYE FOR A PRETTY GIRL

SPENT SEVEN YEARS ON A WHALER. HAD A GOOD TIME AROUND THE WORLD

WHEN I LANDED IN MACAO, SHE WAS STANDING UPON THE SHORE

I NEVER SHOULD HAVE LEFT BILBAO, CAUSE I WON’T SEE IT ANYMORE.

CHORUS:

OH MACAO. OH MACAO. I SHOULD NEVER HAVE LEFT BILBAO

CAUSE I WON’T SEE IT ANYMORE.

OH HER HAIR WAS BLACK AS MIDNIGHT, AND HER LIPS THEY WERE RED AS WINE

HER EYES FLASHED LIKE LIGHTNING, AND I SWORE I WOULD MAKE HER MINE

SO I JUMPED SHIP IN MACAO, ALL BECAUSE OF A PRETTY FACE

I CHASED HER UNTIL SHE CAUGHT ME IN THE PRISON OF HER EMBRACE.

CHORUS:

OH MACAO, OH MACAO, I SHOULD NEVER HAVE LEFT BILBAO

CAUSE I WON’T SEE IT ANYMORE.

NOW I LIVE HERE IN MACAO, AND NEVER PUT OUT TO SEA

A MAN DOESN’T DO MUCH SAILING WHEN HIS STUCK WITH A FAMILY.

CHORUS:

OH MACAO, OH MACAO, I SHOULD NEVER HAVE LEFT BILBAO

CAUSE I WON’T SEE IT ANYMORE.

I SHOULD NEVER HAVE LEFT BILBAO, CAUSE I WON’T SEE IT ANYMORE.
