Treat Her Like a Lady

From the Jimmy Buffett album _Volcano_

By: Jimmy Buffett, David Loggins

1979

Chorus:

C

Some of us sailors call her home

She's big and she's strong and she's mighty

F Dm7

Some of us sailors call her our own

G G7

Guess that's the reason why

C Am

I treat her like a lady

F Dm7

Just treat her like a la -- dy

C

Now I don't like the sound of the ground movin' 'round

F

Or winds spinnin' out of control

G G7

California earthquakes, only seem to make a' me

C

Shake, rattle, and roll

I've been too long on the mainland

Hotels, rental cars, and phones

Time to cast 'em aside, catch the very next tide

And go back, where I belong

Chorus:

Some of us sailors call her home

She's big and she's strong and she's mighty

Some of us sailors call her our own

Guess that's the reason why

I treat her like a lady

Treat her like a lady

Now great whales travel the rhumb lines

Dodging those deadly harpoons

Spawning their young, as their ancestors done

In the depths of her hidden lagoons

There're times I find myself with them

And times I feel as they do

We're on a similar course, it's just a different source

But I'm in danger of extinction too

Chorus:

Some of us sailors call her home

She's big and she's strong and she's mighty

Some of us sailors call her our own

Guess that's the reason why

I treat her like a lady

Treat her like a lady

Treat her like a lady

Treat her like a lady

And miss her when I'm gone

(Lady, lady) treat her like a lady

(Lady, lady) treat her like a lady

(Lady, lady) got to treat her like a lady

(Lady, lady) treat her like a lady

Lady, lady

Lady, lady

Lady, lady
