And the words from her mouth
They're spit straight from hell
The tears start flowing
And my eyes begin to swell
I can't take her home to mother
But I guess that's just as well
She swears like a sailor and I love her
She's young and she is beautiful
Her hair is red as fire
She loves an Irish rebel song
Like The Men Behind The Wire
She waits for me when I'm away
She greets me with a smile
Then throws a blow two feet below
For I've been gone awhile
In the rain she is my sunshine
In the dark she is my light
When things seem so uncertain
She makes everything alright
She cheers and reassures me
I can fight a noble fight
Then she demonstrates upon my head
When I've had too many pints
And the words from her mouth
They're spit straight from hell
The tears start flowing
And my eyes begin to swell
I can't take her home to mother
But I guess that's just as well
She swears like a sailor
She swears like a sailor
She swears like a sailor and I love her
A year ago I sailed the seas
Trying to get away
Over swells and whitecaps
And over sailors graves
But all the while I was away
I longed for dryer land
Where she'd meet me with that evil grin
And a broomstick in her hand
And the words from her mouth
They're spit straight from hell
The tears start flowing
And my eyes begin to swell
I can't take her home to mother
But I guess that's just as well
She swears like a sailor and I love her
And the words from her mouth
They're spit straight from hell
The tears start flowing
And my eyes begin to swell
I can't take her home to mother
But I guess that's just as well
She swears like a sailor
She swears like a sailor
She swears like a sailoooooooor
And I love her
