	Pleasures of the Harbor
	Phil Ochs
	And the ship sets the sail
	They've lived the tale
	To carry to the shore
	Straining at the oars
	Or staring from the rail
	And the sea bids farewell
	She waves in swells
	And sends them on their way
	Time has been her pay
	And time will have to tell
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the har - bor
	And the anchor hits the sand
	The hungry hands
	Have tied them to the port
	The hour will be short
	For leisure on the land
	And the girls scent the air
	They seem so fair
	With paint on their face
	Soft is their embrace
	to lead them up the stairs
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the harbor
	In the room dark and dim
	Touch of skin
	He asks her of her name
	She answers with no shame
	And not a sense of sin
	Until the fingers draw the blinds
	Sip of wine
	The cigarette of doubt
	The candle is blown out
	The darkness is so kind
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the harbor
	And the shadows frame the light
	Same old sight
	Thrill has blown away
	Now all alone they lay
	Two strangers in the night
	Till his heart skips a beat
	He's on his feet
	To shipmates he must join
	She's counting up the coins
	He's swallowed by the street
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the harbor
	In the bar hangs a cloud
	The whiskey's loud
	There's laughter in their eyes
	The lonely in disguse
	Are clinging to the crowd
	And the bottle fills the glass
	The haze is fast
	He's trembling for the taste
	Of passion gone to waste
	In memories of the past
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the harbor
	In the alley, red with rain
	Cry of pain
	For love was but a smile
	Teasing all the while
	Now dancing down the drain
	'Till the boys reach the dock
	They gently mock
	Lift him on their backs
	Lay him on his rack
	And leave beneath the light
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the harbor
	And the ship sets the sail
	They've lived the tale
	To carry from the shore
	Straining at the oars
	Or staring from the rail
	And the sea bids farewell
	She waves in swells
	And sends them on their way
	Time has been her pay
	And time will have to tell
	Soon your sailing will be over
	Come and take the pleasures of the harbor
