Bay City Lady

Chorus:
Bay City Lady
Sweet Woman bound to the sea
Lookin' for any
Signs of her sailor, signs of her sailor

Supernatural feelin',
Just beyond the horizon line
She can tell when it's reelin', reelin',
Long distant ships in the sunset sky

Many years she's been ballin',
How long, how long will she cry
She could hear him callin', callin,
Between the crashing waves and the rise of the tide

Was she lookin' for someone
Did she find someone

Heard the song from a shanty seatown,
Long lost love to the violent sea
Cannonball took him quickly on down,
Sinking ship to the dreadful deep

Heard a foghorn scream from the ocean
Like a ghost in the lonely night
Then came a light from a moonbeam, golden
Her sailor's ship in a moonlit flight

Was she lookin' for someone
Did she find someone

Bay City Lady
Sweet Woman bound to the sea
Lookin' for any
Hot signs of her sailor, signs of her sailor
Now she's flying free
Riding that golden
Ship of her sailor
Flyin' forever
