    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

    And there's a girl... in this harbour town
    And she works... laying 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"
    "Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"

    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
    But he made it clear... he couldn't stay
    No harbour 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"

    Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes
    When he told his sailor stories
    She could feel the ocean foam rise
    She saw its raging glory
    But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man
    And Brandy does her best to understand

    At night... when the bars close down
    Brandy walks through a silent town
    And loves a man... who's not around
    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"

    "Brandy, you're a fine girl"

    "What a good wife you would be"
    "But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"
