When i came into your harbor
but i feel my spirits lifting
like a wind just off the starboard bow
now, i know i swore i would love no more
but you hauled in and called my bluff
you took the wind out of my sails
it must be luff
it must be luff
I've been down, i've been around
i drink the whiskey, don't drink no water
and this ain't my first seaport town
i am a salty seaman's daughter
but you rock my boat 'til it will hardly float
and when you talk that soft romantic stuff
you take the wind out of my sails
it must be luff
it must be luff

so fly that jolly roger high
don't lie, you are a pirate
shanghaid my heart, stole my soul
don't you try to deny it
oh, how i cried when you took my pride
and when that just weren't enough
you took the wind out of my sails
it must be luff
it must be luff
