Captain For Dark Mornings

I am soft and silly and my name is Lillianaloo
And sir you're grace in action to my satisfaction
Well my mama she's savin' cause my daddy's a ravin' crazy gambler
But you my captain are grace in action to my satisfaction oo.

[Chorus:]
Come along now and I'll be your woman if you'll be my captain
I'll be your woman if you'll be my captain
I'll be your woman if you'll be my fearless captain
Die! I would lay me down and die, for my captain.

I am a woman in love, yes I am
I am a woman in love
My heart is up in white?
I saying yes to love
My heart is up in white
And I am saying yes to love
Saying yes, say yes.

(ad lib of previous stanza)

I am soft and silly and my name is Lillianaloo
And sir you're fair black fashion for this winter's passion oo
I've been sold by sailors, I've been worn by tailors, soldiers wound me
But you my captain are medication for my reputation.

[Chorus]

Captain, say yes.
