Jamaica Inn

Can you patch my jeans, Peggy Ann?
Just a little stitch to mend the hole
He has torn, if you can
Maybe I got too set in my ways
He says she reminds him of me
When we first met in those early days
The sexiest thing is trust
I wake up to find the pirates have come
Tying up along your coast
How was I to know the pirates have come?
Between Rebecca's
Beneath your firmaments
I've worshipped
In the Jamaica Inn
In the Jamaica Inn
With the gales, my little boat was tossed
How was I to know that you'd send her
With a lantern to bring me in?
"Are you positive this is a friend?"
The captain grimaced
"Those are cliffs of rock ahead, if I'm not mistaken."
The sexiest thing is trust
I wake up to find the pirates have come
Tying up along your coast
How was I to know the pirates have come?
Between Rebecca's
Beneath your firmaments
I've worshipped
The sexiest thing is trust
I wake up to find the pirates have come
Tying up along your coast
How was I to know the pirates have come?
Between Rebecca's
Beneath your firmaments
I've worshipped
In the Jamaica Inn
In the Jamaica Inn
In the Jamaica Inn
In the Jamaica Inn
