Текст песни

You gentlemen can watch while I’m scrubbin' the floors
And I’m scrubbin' the floors while you’re gawkin'
And maybe once you tip me and it makes you feel swell
On a ratty waterfront in a ratty old hotel
And you never guess to who you’re talkin'
You never guess to who you are talkin'
Suddenly one night, there’s a scream in the night
And you wonder, «What could that a-been?»
And you see me kinda grinnin' while I’m scrubbin'
And you wonder, «What's she got to grin?»
And a ship, a black freighter
With a skull on its masthead
Will be comin' in
You gentlemen can say, «Hey girl, finish th floors
Get upstairs, make the bds, earn your keep here!»
You toss me your tips and look out at the ships
But I’m countin' your heads while I make up the beds
'Cause there’s nobody gonna sleep here
Tonight none of you will sleep here
Then that night there’s a bang in the night
And you yell, «Who's that kickin' up a row?»
And you see me kinda starin' out the winda
And you say, «What's she got to stare at now?»
And a ship, the black freighter
Turns around in the harbor
Shootin' guns from the bow
