The Mermaid
when i was a lad in a fishn town
me old man said to me
you can spend your life
your jolly life just sailin on the sea
you can search the world for pretty girls
till your eyes are weak and dim
but dont go searchin for a mermaid son
if you dont know how to swim
(Chorus):
cause her hair was green as seaweed
and her skin was blue and pale
her face it was a work of art, i love that girl with all my heart
i only like the upper part, I did not ike the tail.
(End chorus)
I signed onto a sailing ship
my very first day at sea
i seen the mermaid in the wave reachin out to me
come live with me in he sea said she
down on the ocean floor
and ill show you a million wonderous things
you never seen before
so over i jumped and she pulled me down
down to her seaweed bed had a pillow made of a tortise shell
she placed beneath my head
she fed me shrimp and caviar upon the silver dish

from he head to her waist it was just my taste
but the rest of her was a fish
(Chorus):
cause her hair was green as seaweed
her skin was blue and pale
her face it was a work of art, i love that girl with all my heart
i only like the upper part, I did not ike the tail.
(End chorus)
but then one day she swam away
so i sang to the clams and the whales
ohh how i miss her seaweed hair
and the silver shine of her scales
but then her sister she swam by
and set my heart awhirl
caue her upper part was an ugly fish but the bottom part was a girl
(Chorus):
cause her hair was green as seaweed
her skin was blue and pale
her legs they are a work of art, i love that girl with all my heart
and i dont give a damn abot the upper part
case thats how i get my tail.
(End chorus)
