Fishguard Ladies

Fifty Fishguard ladies in a row
Kiss them twice and wind them up and look at them go
(kiss kiss)
Blushing at the raindrops
Curling up the clifftops in the snow

Fifty Fishguard ladies in a line
Bold as brazen monkeys with a war in their minds
Staring out to sunset
Waiting hushed and concrete for their time

We’ll have you running back, running back to Camaret
We’ll have you quaking in your knees
We’ll have you running back, running back to Camaret
We’ll have you running cross the seas

Fifty Fishguard ladies count to three (one two three)
Flutter up their petticoats and look to the breeze
Flickering of scarlet
Flashing down a gauntlet to the seas

We’ll have you running back, running back to Camaret
We’ll have you quaking in your knees
We’ll have you running back, running back to Camaret
We’ll have you running cross the seas

Fifty Fishguard ladies all in frocks
Hearts of hardy steel and hats like chimney pots
Crafty fingered wenches
Tying all the Frenchies up in knots

We’ll have you running back, running back to Camaret
We’ll have you quaking in your knees
We’ll have you running back, running back to Camaret
We’ll have you running cross the seas

Fifty Fishguard ladies in a row (one two three)
