Nic Jones - Nine Times a Night lyrics

A rambling young sailor just newly come down, His ship was paid off in old Liverpool town. And as soon as he landed he said "Downright, I come from a family called Nine-Times-A-Night" Now the town it soon rang with loud words of his fame And they heard of this man with such a wonderful name And the ladies when they are in bed at night They long for the man they call Nine-Times-A-Night Now a lady soon got him and she married him with speed And she took him to bed for this wonderful deed And he loved her six times and she thought it right But she still gave him hints of his nine times a night "Oh lady oh lady you took me quite wrong I said to that family that I didn't belong Well nine times a night is too much for one man I can't do it myself but my sister she can"
