Im back on dry land once again Opportunity awaits me like a rat in the drain Were all hunting honey with money to burn Just a short time to show you the tricks that weve learned
If the boys all behave themselves here Well theres pretty young ladies and beer in the rear You wont need a gutter to sleep in tonight Oh the prices I charge here will see you alright
So she lays down beside me again My sweet painted lady, the one with no name Many have used her and many still do Theres a place in the world for a woman like you
Oh sweet painted lady Seems its always been the same Getting paid for being laid Guess thats the name of the game
Forget us well have gone very soon Just forget we ever slept in your rooms And well leave the smell of the sea in your beds Where loves just a job and nothing is said
