《The Captain’s Wife’s Lament》歌词

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:28] Turned the sailors down

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:09] Seamen in the bathroom

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:27] In me underwear

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:38] My God—there's even seamen

[00:01:39] Hanging from the chandelier

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

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

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

[00:01:46] Upon the Saint Bernard

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:01] Darken up my door

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

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

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

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