Brandy

There's a port on a western bay

And it serves a hundred ships a day

Lonely sailors pass the time away

And they talk about their homes

There's a girl in this harbor town

And she works layin' whiskey down

They say: Brandy, fetch another round

Then she serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say

Brandy, you're a fine girl

What a good wife you would be

And your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea

Brandy wears a braided chain

Made of finest silver from the North of Spain

She's got a locket and it bears the name

Of the man that Brandy loves

And he came on a summer's day

Bringin' gifts from a-far away

But he made it clear that he couldn't stay

'Cause no harbor was his home

The sailor said

Brandy, you're a fine girl

What a good wife you would be

But my life, my love, my lady is the sea

At night when the bars close down

Brandy walks through a silent town

And loves a man who's not around

And she still can hear him say

She hears him say

Brandy, you're a fine girl

What a good wife you would be

But my life, my love, my lady is the sea
