Lyrics

[Spoken] Who's that knocking at my door? *Knocking* Who's that knocking at my door? *Knocking* Who's that knocking at my door? *Knocking* Cried the fair young maiden [Verse 1] It's only me from over the seas Cried Barnacle Bill the Sailor I'm hard to windward and hard a-lee Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor I've newly come upon the shore And this is what I'm looking for A jade, a maid, or even a whore Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor [Spoken] Well I'll come down and let you in I'll come down and let you in I'll come down and let you in Cried the fair young maiden [Verse 2] Well, hurry before I bust the door Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor My arse is tight and my tempers raw Say Barnaclе Bill the Sailor I'm so wound up I'm afraid to stop I'm looking for meat or I'm going to pop A rag, a bone with a chеrry on top Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor [Spoken] Oh your whisker scrape my cheeks Oh your whisker scrape my cheeks Oh your whisker scrape my cheeks Cried the fair young maiden [Verse 3] I'm dirty and lousy and full of fleas Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor I'll put my mast in whom I please Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor My flowing whiskers give me class The sea horses ate them instead of grass If they hurt your cheeks, they'll tickle your ass Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor [Spoken] Tell me that we'll soon be wed Tell me that we'll soon be wed Tell me that we'll soon be wed Cried the fair young maiden [Verse 4] You foolish girl, it's nothing but sport Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor I've got me a wife in every port Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor Off I go on another tack To give some other fair maid a crack But keep it oiled till I come back Says Barnacle Bill the Sailor
