The Captain's Wife's Lament - 保罗·法莱尔[00:00:00]

The ship sailed into harbor[00:00:10]

After fifteen months at sea[00:00:14]

The captain hit the tavern[00:00:16]

With his crew of fifty-three[00:00:18]

After drinking up their pay[00:00:22]

They staggered through the town[00:00:24]

But all the inns and public houses[00:00:27]

Turned the sailors down[00:00:28]

The captain said “Fear not me lads[00:00:31]

You all can come with me[00:00:35]

I live just 'round the corner[00:00:37]

And you all can stay for free”[00:00:39]

But when the captain's wife awoke[00:00:43]

Upon the break of day[00:00:45]

They say that you could hear her wailin'[00:00:50]

Clear to Bot'ny Bay [00:00:55]

She said there's[00:01:04]

Seamen all around the bed[00:01:06]

And seamen on the floor[00:01:08]

Seamen in the bathroom[00:01:09]

And behind the closet door[00:01:11]

There's seamen in the fireplace[00:01:12]

And seamen in the hall[00:01:14]

The living room is carpeted[00:01:16]

With seamen wall to wall[00:01:17]

There's seamen in the entryway[00:01:22]

And seamen on the stair[00:01:24]

And worst of all there's even seamen[00:01:25]

In me underwear[00:01:27]

There's some behind the larder[00:01:28]

And beneath the table too[00:01:30]

I do believe your seamen[00:01:32]

Got into me Irish stew[00:01:33]

There's seamen here in front of me[00:01:35]

And seamen in the rear[00:01:37]

My God—there's even seamen[00:01:38]

Hanging from the chandelier[00:01:39]

There's seamen on the windowsill[00:01:41]

And seamen in the yard[00:01:42]

The seamen even left a stain[00:01:44]

Upon the Saint Bernard[00:01:46]

Although I am a patient wife[00:01:48]

'Tis more than I can bear[00:01:49]

To wake up in the morning[00:01:51]

With your seamen in my hair[00:01:52]

I ne'er again do wish to see thee[00:01:57]

Darken up my door[00:02:01]

So clean up all your seamen and[00:02:06]

Come round my way no more[00:02:08]

So clean up all your seamen and[00:02:09]

Come round my way no more[00:02:11]
