I caught the last bus down to the harbour
Where the moonlight's on the sleeping sea
A pretty girl stood there at the bus stop
She said hey Johnny come and see about me
She said Doop Doop
So many seamen able and willing
Have pa**ed through these arms on their way to the sea
They leave me tokens of love and affection
When I drank from her lips I tasted the sea
She said Doop Doop
How can a young girl hope to survive
Living alone when there's no-one alive
Out in the night she swallows her pride
And she says catch me Johnny I'm falling again
I jumped a freighter bound for Momba**a
I worked every day neath a burning sky
L wrote her sea poems and nautical letters
I remember her words till the day that I die
She said Doop Doop
