Brandy (You`re A Fine Girl) — текст песни (Looking Glass)

(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda)

There`s a port on a western bay
And it serves a hundred ships a day
Lonely sailors pass the time away
And talk about their homes

And there`s a girl in this harbor town
And she works layin` whiskey down
They say Brandy, fetch another round
She serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say Brandy, you`re a fine girl (you`re a fine girl)
What a good wife you would be (such a fine girl)
Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Brandy wears a braided chain
Made of finest silver from the North of Spain
A locket that bears the name
Of the man that Brandy loves

He came on a summer`s day
Bringin` gifts from far away
But he made it clear he couldn`t stay
No harbor was his home

The sailor said Brandy, you`re a fine girl (you`re a fine girl)
What a good wife you would be (such a fine girl)
But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes
When he told his sailor stories
She could feel the ocean foam rise
She saw its ragin` glory
But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man
And Brandy does her best to understand
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
And loves a man who`s not around
She still can hear him say

She hears him say Brandy, you`re a fine girl (you`re a fine girl)
What a good wife you would be (such a fine girl)
But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

Brandy, you`re a fine girl (you`re a fine girl)
FADE

What a good wife you would be (such a fine girl)
But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea
