red hot chili peppers - brandy (live in cardiff, wales) lyrics

Loading...

[spoken]
this next song is not an original
but we cover it
and it’s from the early seventies
and we’ll probably have more fun than you will
so just watch us enjoy this and then we’ll get back to business

[intro]
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo+doo

[verse 1]
there’s a port on a western bay
and it serves a hundred ships a day
and though the sailors pass the time away
and talk about their homes
and 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

[chorus]
the sailors say, “brandy, you’re a fine…” (you’re a fine girl)
“what a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea”
[interlude]
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo+doo

[verse 2]
now, brandy wears a braided chain
made of finest silver from the north of spain
a locket that bears the name
of the man that brandy loves
he came on a summer’s day
bringing gifts from far away
and though he made it clear he couldn’t stay
no harbor was his home

[chorus]
the sailor said “brandy, you’re a fine…” (you’re a fine girl)
“what a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“but my wife, my lover, my lady is the sea”

[interlude]
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo+doo

[bridge]
yeah, brandy used to watch his eyes
as he told the sailor story
she could feel the ocean foam rise
as she saw the raging glory
now, he had always told the truth
lord, he was an honest man
and brandy does her best to understand (ha+ah)
[interlude]
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo+doo

[verse 3]
at night when the bars close down
and brandy walks through a silent town
she loves a man who’s not around
she still can hear him say

[chorus]
she hears him say, “brandy, you’re a fine…” (you’re a fine girl)
“what a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“but my wife, my lover, my lady is the sea”

[interlude]
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo+doo

[chorus]
“yeah, brandy, you’re a fine…” (you’re a fine girl)
“what a good wife you would be” (such a fine girl)
“but my wife, my lover, my lady is the sea”

[outro]
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo
is the sea
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo+doo+doo, doo
is the sea
doo+doo+doo, doo+doo+doo
doo+doo, ooh, ooh, ooh
