[Verse 1] As I walked through the port streets, a fair maid I did meet Who asked me please to see her home she smiled at me so sweet [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 2] I said, "Forgive me, lady, I'm a stranger here in town I left my ship this afternoon, from Ceres I was bound." [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 3] She said, "Come with me, sailor, I'll stand you to a treat I'll buy you beer and vudka, dear, and something good to eat." [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 4] And when we reached the taproom, boys, the drinks were passed around That liquor, it was awful strong, my head went round and round. [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 5] And when of drinks we'd had our fill, we straight to bed did go And little did I ever think she'd prove my overthrow [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 6] When I came to next morning, I had an aching head And there was I, Jack-all-alone, stark naked on the bed [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Ad Lib] You love us for our money! [Verse 7] I looked all around the room, but nothing could I see But a lady's frilly nightgown which now belonged to me [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 8] Everything was silent, the hour was eight o'clock I put my skimpy nightgown on and headed for the dock [Portable Synthesizer solo over guitar strums, claps, and stomps] [Verse 9] My shipmates seen me come aboard, these words to me did say "well well, old son, you've lost your boots since last you went away." [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 10] "Is this the local fashion the ladies wear this shore? Where is the shop that sells it? Have they got any more?" [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 11] The First Mate cried, "why Jack, my boy, I'm sure I could have dredged Some better threads than that, by far, to buy for eighty creds." [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Verse 12 - final warning] So come all you stout mariners, take warning when ashore Or else you'll meet some charming girl who's but a thieving whore [Shout] Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it [Chorus - group vocal, rowdy] Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits [Outro - big finish, full group] You may lose all your cash and things Might get a rash as well For those bims are more devilish Than any of the Hells! Get away, you crew-dog, Or you'll regret it Oh you Spice Hall girls, you love us for our credits
