Lifeboat Man

(album: Into The North - 2019)

I'm off to see me darling Jen
She's hanging around the slip again

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man

She heaved herself into the sea
Screaming come on boys, come and rescue me

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man

They launched the boat for save our Jen
It was full of handsome lifeboat men

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man

They pulled our Jen out from the wet
And laid her right down on the deck

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man

Then the lifeboat sailed from North to South
And the crew all gave her mouth to mouth

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man

And they puffed and preened for to win her hand
But she went below with a midshipman

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man

She said my lad now you saved my life
You can take me home for to be your wife

With your blue eyes
Sparkling deep sea blue eyes
Giving the crew the old eye oh
She wants a lifeboat man
