Brandy (You're A Fine Girl)

Brandy (You're A Fine Girl) - Ray Conniff

There's a port on a western bay

And it serves a hundred ships a day

Lonely sailors pass the time away

And talk about their homes

There's a girl in this harbor town

And she works layin' whiskey down

They say Brandy fetch another round

She serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say Brandy you're a fine

Girl

What a good wife you would be

And your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea

Brandy wears a braided chain

Made of finest silver from the North of Spain

She is got a locket and bears the name

Of the man that Brandy loves

And he came on a summer's day

Bringin' gifts from far away

But he made it clear he couldn't stay

No harbor was his home

The sailor said Brandy you're a fine girl

What a good wife you would be

But my life my lover my lady is the sea

At night when the bars close down

Brandy walks through a silent town

And she loves a man who's not around and

She still can hear him say

She hears him say Brandy

You're a fine girl

What a good wife you would be

But my life my lover

My lady is the sea
