Pirate Jenny - Judy Collins (朱蒂·柯林斯)[00:00:00]

You gentlemen can watch while I'm scrubbin the floor[00:00:02]

And I'm scrubbin' the floor while you're gawking[00:00:05]

And maybe once you tipped me and it made you feel swell[00:00:09]

In a ratty waterfront in this ratty old hotel[00:00:13]

But you'll never know to who you're talkin[00:00:16]

You never know to who you're talkin[00:00:19]

Suddenly one night there's a scream in the night[00:00:22]

And you yelled What the hell could that have been[00:00:25]

And you see me kinda grinnin while I'm scrubbin[00:00:28]

And you say What's she got to grin[00:00:33]

And the ship a Black Freighter[00:00:37]

With a skull on its masthead will be comin in[00:00:44]

Then you gentlemen can say Hey girl finish the floors[00:00:53]

Get upstairs make the beds earn your keep here[00:00:57]

You toss me your tips and look out at the ships[00:01:00]

But I'm countin' your heads[00:01:04]

While I make up the beds[00:01:05]

Cuz there's nobody gonna sleep here[00:01:07]

Tonight none of you will sleep here[00:01:10]

Then that night there's a bang in the night[00:01:14]

And you yelled Who's that kicking up a row[00:01:17]

And ya see me kinda starin out the window[00:01:20]

And you say What's she got to stare at now[00:01:25]

And the ship the Black Freighter[00:01:30]

Turns around in the harbor[00:01:36]

Shootin guns from the bow[00:01:41]

Then you gentlemen can wipe off the laugh from your face[00:01:47]

Every building in town is a flat one[00:01:51]

Your whole stinking place will be down to the ground[00:01:54]

Only this cheap hotel standin' up safe and sound[00:01:58]

And you ask Why did they spare that one[00:02:02]

And you ask Why did they spare that one[00:02:05]

All the night through with the noise and to do[00:02:10]

You wonder who's the person lives up there[00:02:13]

Then you see me steppin' out in the mornin[00:02:16]

Lookin' nice with a ribbon in my hair[00:02:21]

And the ship the Black Freighter[00:02:27]

Runs the flag up its masthead[00:02:34]

And a cheer rings the air[00:02:38]

By noontime the dock[00:02:46]

Is a' swarmin' with men[00:02:48]

Comin' off of that ghostly freighter[00:02:49]

And they're movin' in the shadows[00:02:53]

Where no one can see[00:02:55]

And they're chainin' up people[00:02:57]

And bringin' them to me[00:02:59]

Askin' me[00:03:00]

Kill them now or later[00:03:01]

Askin' me[00:03:04]

Kill them now or later[00:03:06]

Noon by the clock[00:03:10]

And so still on the dock[00:03:12]

You can hear the foghorn miles away[00:03:16]

In that quiet of death[00:03:22]

I'll say Right now[00:03:26]

Then they'll pile up the bodies[00:03:31]

And I'll say That'll learn ya[00:03:34]

And the ship[00:03:40]

The Black Freighter[00:03:44]

Disappears out to sea and on it is me[00:03:47]
