The Jolly Rogers - Coachmen's Whip lyrics
[The Jolly Rogers - Coachmen's Whip lyrics]
I once took a job as a coachman
My money was paid in advance
So I traveled first down to Dover
Then made my way over to France
There I met a lovely young lady
Who dressed me in breeches so tight
She said "I'm in need of a coachman
To drive me by day and by night"
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
She first took me down to her cellar
And filled me with liquor so quick
We hadn't been there for a moment
When she asked for a look at my-
(My whip! She asked for a look at my whip)
She held it and viewed it a moment
And handed it back with a smile
"I can see by the length and
The look of your lash
You can drive me in the old-fashioned style!"
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
She bid me get into position
So I climbed right up in her- (in her seat)
Three lashes I gave with my cracker
And I drove her right down the high street
I handled my whip with good judgment
Until I was sure of her ways
But the very first yank that she gave on my-
(on my brake)
She broke the mainspring on her chaise
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
When my mistress grew tired or weary
And begged me to stop for a rest
She called for her serving maid Sally
The girl that I loved second best
She said "Sally we have a fine coachman
Who understands driving in style
While the spring on my chaise
Is being strengthened again
I'll let him drive you for a while"
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
My money was paid in advance
So I traveled first down to Dover
Then made my way over to France
There I met a lovely young lady
Who dressed me in breeches so tight
She said "I'm in need of a coachman
To drive me by day and by night"
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
She first took me down to her cellar
And filled me with liquor so quick
We hadn't been there for a moment
When she asked for a look at my-
(My whip! She asked for a look at my whip)
She held it and viewed it a moment
And handed it back with a smile
"I can see by the length and
The look of your lash
You can drive me in the old-fashioned style!"
She was such a charming young lady
All in the height of her bloom
And I was a dashing young coachman
And I drove her ten times 'round the room
