The West Country Lyrics

Dreadnoughts The West Country

Santa Marina, what you've done to me Santa Marina, all upon the Spanish sea The truth to tell, she is the belle Of high society

She lies awake and dreams of me Danny from the west country

Santa Marina, with cannons 1 to 4 Santa Marina, you've sent us to the floor She's soft and fine, 5 foot 9 Her eyes are royalty

She lies awake and dreams of me Danny from the west country

So radiant and fair with locks of auburn hair Like moonlight shining on the tide And I swore I'd go to die 100,000 times For one night by her side One night turned into 17 Before we put to sea

She lies awake and dreams of me Danny from the west country

Santa Marina, you're the end of Danny Doan Santa Marina, his grave shall have no stone Alone, the waters gather 'round And set this soldier free

She lies awake and dreams of me
