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 harbor town 
And she works layin' whiskey down 
They say "Brandy, fetch another round" 
She serves them whiskey and wine 

The sailors say "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (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" 
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit) 

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 
Bringin' gifts from far away 
But he made it clear he couldn't stay 
No harbor was his home 

The sailor said " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl) 
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl) 
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea" 
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit) 

Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes 
When he told his sailor stories 
She could feel the ocean foam rise 
She saw its ragin' glory 

But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man 
And Brandy does her best to understand 
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit) 

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" (you're a fine girl) 
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl) 
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea" 
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit) 

"Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl) 

"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl) 
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"
