| Lyrics: | All the sailors they're all home from leave
And everybody's waiting for them to try to
deceive
The storekeepers have drawn their lace curtains bare
And all the women and the wee
young girls all waiting there
Ooooh, but how the ladies pay
Oh, if they only knew how the
ladies pay
Yeah, now, now, the ladies pay
Oh, when the men, they've gone
away
Nobody is standing on upon the door
And nobody is feeding any of the poor
The
poor, sick soldier lies in bed beside his girl
Thinking of another place on the other side of
the world
Ah, how the ladies pay
Oh, oh, how the ladies pay
When the men, they've gone
away
Oh, I wish, I knew how the ladies pay
Day and night, night and day
How the ladies
pay
Day and night, night and day, night and day
Ladies pay, now ... |
