Album: Captain Swing

Well I'm admittin' I was driftin'
When I came into your harbor
But I feel my spirits liftin'

Like a wind just off the starboard bough
Well I know I swore I'd love no more
But you rolled in you called my bluff
You take the wind out of my sails
Must be luff, must be luff

I been down, I been around
I drink the whiskey, don't drink no water
This ain't my first seaport town
I'm a salty seaman's daughter
But you rock my boat, it'll hardly float
And when you talk that soft romantic stuff
You take the wind out of my sails
Must be luff, must be luff

So fly that jolly roger high
Don't lie, you are a pirate
Shanghaied my heart, stole my soul
Don't you try to deny it
How I cried when you took my pride
And when that just wasn't enough
You took the wind out of my sails
Must be luff, must be luff
