lyrics

I’m Gonna Love You Anyhow
(The Sailor Song)

Bite my hand, I’ll understand
Strap me to a chair, I won’t care
Ignore me when I come around
I’m gonna love you anyhow

Oh No, I lost my mind
Never met a woman got me so far behind
Oh no, can’t you see
I love you like a sailor come home from the sea

We are in a time of drastic change
Too many horses on a dwindling range
While I’m chasing down, what I believe I’m allowed
I’m gonna love you anyhow

Oh No, I lost my mind
Never met a woman got me so far behind
Oh no, can’t you see
I love you like a sailor come home from the sea

Temperature drops, freezing the crops
Comes every year, have no fear
Cold as you get when the evening’s down
I’m gonna love you anyhow

Oh No, I lost my mind
Never met a woman got me so far behind
Oh no, can’t you see
I love you like a sailor come home from the sea

Gonna find a good alibi drain it of life
Gonna make a fast start, maybe tonight
I’ll be back in the morning home with the cows
And I’m gonna love you anyhow

Oh No, I lost my mind
Never met a woman got me so far behind
Oh no, can’t you see
I love you like a sailor come home from the sea
I love you like a sailor come home from the sea
