Ella Fitzgerald - Lorelei lyrics

Back in the days of knights in armor There once lived a lovely charmer Swimming in the rhine Her figure was divine She had a yen for all the sailors Fishermen and gobs and whalers She had a most immoral eye They called her lorelei She created quite a stir And i want to be like her I want to be like that gal on the river Who sang her song to the ships pa**ing by She had the goods and how she could deliver The lorelei She used to love in a strange kind of fashion With lots of hey-ho-de-ho-hi-de-hi And i can guarantee i'm full of pa**ion Like the lorelei I'm treacherous, yeah-yeah Oh, i just can't hold myself in check I'm lecherous, yeah-yeah I want to bite my initials on a sailor's neck Each affair has a kick and a wallop For what they crave, i can always supply I want to be just like that other trollop The lorelei I want to be just like that other trollop The lorelei
