Lorelei

Lyrics

[Intro] Back in the days of knights in armour There once lived a lovely charmer Swimming in the Rhine Her figure was divine She had a yen for all the sailors Fishermen and gobs and whalers She had a most immoral eye They called her Lorelei She created quite a stir And I want to be like her [Verse 1] I want to be like that gal on the river Who sang her songs to the ships passing by She had the goods and how she could dеliver The Lorelеi [Verse 2] She used to love in a strange kind of fashion With lots of "hey, ho-de-ho, hi-de-hi" And I can guarantee I'm full of passion Like the Lorelei [Bridge] Well now, I'm treacherous, ya ya I just can't hold myself in check I'm lecherous, ya ya I wanna bite my initials on a sailor's neck, woo! [Verse 3] Each affair has a kick and a wallop For what they crave I can always supply I wanna be just like that other trollop The Lorelei [Outro] Now, I tell you Ashes to ashes and dust to dust If the river don't get you then the undertow must But I, I wanna be Lorelei Oh, and sit and whistle on a rock
