A Salty Dog

Gary Brooker

I've known some ladies

That made me happy

In so many different ways

Like sweet Conchita

And Isabella

Back in my travelling' days



Then there was Georgia

she was a country girl

she could reap all I could sow

Not like dear Judith

So fond of Music

And Edgar Allan Poe



But when I think of Angelina

All the others fade away

I can't recover

I know I'll love her

Now and forever



I took my pleasure

Where I found it

And the ladies as they came

Like Liz from Tucson

And Claire from Rouen

There were so many names



When unexpected

Just like a whirlwind

Angelina stole my heart

We did some walking

And got to talking,

And said we'd never part
