I took a shipmate’s idea and totally fucked up Willie Nelson’s fine song Me and Paul. My apologies Willie.
Me and Y’all
By Garland Davis
It was rocking and rolling sailing
But I’m finally standing upright on the deck
After taking several readings
I’m surprised to find that my mind is a total wreck
I guess Subic was the roughest
But I know I have been drunk in them all
We received our education
In the ports of WestPac, me and Y’all
Almost busted in Pusan
But for reasons, I’d rather not disclose
But if you stay in a hotel there and leave
Take them with you if you want your clothes
And at the Landing in Yokosuka
They refused to let us board the boat at all
They said we were not in uniform
But I believe they like to pick on me and Y’all
It was rocking and rolling sailing
But I’m finally standing upright on the deck
After taking several readings
I’m surprised to find that my mind is a total wreck
I guess Subic was the roughest
But I know I have been drunk in them all
We received our education
In the ports of WestPac, me and Y’all
On a TAD trip to Singapore
We watched the parade on Bugis Street
The show was long and we’re just sitting there
They were pretty and sweet but from the wrong side
Well we drank a lot of whiskeys
So I don’t know what went on that night at all
But I do believe they may have kissed us
I guess Singapore ain’t made for me and Y’all
It was rocking and rolling sailing
But I’m finally standing upright on the deck
After taking several readings
I’m surprised to find that my mind is a total wreck
I guess Subic was the roughest
But I know I have been drunk in them all
We received our education
In the ports of WestPac, me and Y’all
