[ti:Lovely Ladies]
[00:02.94] I smell women
[00:04.52] Smell 'em in the air
[00:05.94] Think I'll drop my anchor
[00:06.91] In that harbor over there
[00:09.04] Lovely ladies
[00:10.52] Smell 'em through the smoke
[00:12.04] Seven days at sea
[00:12.86] Can make you hungry for a poke
[00:15.09] Even stokers need a little stoke!
[00:18.14] Lovely ladies
[00:19.66] Waiting for a bite
[00:21.19] Waiting for the customers
[00:22.21] Who only come at night
[00:24.19] Lovely ladies
[00:25.67] Ready for the call
[00:27.19] Standing up or lying down
[00:28.26] Or any way at all
[00:30.19] Bargain prices up against the wall
[00:34.36] What pretty hair!
[00:36.50] What pretty locks you got there
[00:40.36] What luck you got. It's worth a centime, my dear
[00:46.41] I'll take the lot
[00:48.54] Don't touch me! Leave me alone!
[00:51.23] Let's make a price.
[00:53.83] I'll give you all of ten francs,
[00:56.93] Just think of that!
[00:58.66] It pays a debt
[00:59.93] Just think of that
[01:01.10] What can I do? It pays a debt.
[01:04.66] Ten francs may save my poor Cosette!
[01:11.21] Old men, young men, take 'em as they come
[01:14.16] Harbor rats and alley cats and every kind of scum
[01:17.26] Poor men, rich men, leaders of the land
[01:20.15] See them with their trousers off they're never quite as grand
[01:23.33] All it takes is money in your hand!
[01:28.97] Lovely ladies
[01:31.46] Going for a song
[01:34.21] Got a lot of callers
[01:36.09] But they never stay for long
[01:39.90] Come on, Captain,
[01:42.09] you can wear your shoes
[01:44.38] Don't it make a change
[01:45.44] To have a girl who can't refuse
[01:49.14] Easy money
[01:51.02] Lying on a bed
[01:53.05] Just as well they never see
[01:54.84] The hate that's in your head
[01:57.42] Don't they know they're making love
[02:01.24] To one already dead
