Meg Davis - End of the Tail Lyrics


Meg Davis Lyrics

End of the Tail Lyrics
Captain Jack was a young man when he went to sea
All me young ladies go and kiss him goodbye
He was barely a child of twenty and three
Oh tell him young ladies, go and tell him for me
He can marry the mermaid that lives in the sea

I was faithful and waited when he went to sea
All me young ladies go and kiss him goodbye
For I knew we’d be wedded my Jackie and me
Oh tell him young ladies, go and tell him for me
He can marry the mermaid that lives in the sea

Captain Jack met a mermaid when he went to sea
All me young ladies go and kiss him goodbye
In the blink of an eye he forgot about me
Oh tell him young ladies, go and tell him for me
He can marry the mermaid that lives in the sea

I was less in his eyes than this beautiful maid
I did love and was true, this is how he repaid
Then he sends back his crew with this question for me:
“May I marry this mermaid that lives in the sea?”

What would you do?

Now a girl of the land has two legs you can see
And the treasures between them defined easily
But a mermaid’s a fish from the waist to the ground
And in fish such treasure has never been found

So I said, “Yes.”

Now my Jackie has left in the teeth of the gale,
Ore to marry some sea-slut with crabs on her tail
Now he wails on the rocks for he’s found much to late
That the creatures of ocean and land cannot mate!

Captain Jack is an Asshole it’s easy to see!
All me young ladies tell him, “Piss off and die”
For he left all his gold and his best friend with me,
Oh tell him young ladies, go and tell him for me
He can freeze off his balls in the cold northern sea
Oh tell him young ladies, go and tell him for me
He can freeze off his balls in the cold northern sea
