Blow out the candle (Words/music - Justin Lavash)

Originally recorded on demo album Slide (2010). Live version appears on Live in Prague 2015

Blow out the candle and a sailor dies

Turn your head my darling as the gentlemen go by

Hang up the horseshoe, upside down

Better cross your heart before you drive into town

Odds and evens, put a flower on the grave

Pay off the priest so a soul can be saved

One for sorrow, two for joy

The sailor went to sea and now he's looking for the buoy

Cover up the clock, roll the blinds right down

Keep the music playing till the ship goes down

Save up your pennies for the dead man's eyes

Cross my palm with silver and I'll tell no lies

Me and you sitting on a tree

K-I-S-S-I-N-G
