Brandy You're A Fine Girl Looking Glass

Brandy You're A Fine Girl Looking Glass

There's a port on a western bay
And it serves a hundred ships a day
Lonely sailors pass the time away
And talk about their homes

And there's a girl in this harbor town
And she works layin' whiskey down
They say "Brandy, fetch another round"
She serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"

Brandy wears a braided chain
Made of finest silver from the North of Spain
A locket that bears the name
Of the man that Brandy loves

He came on a summer's day
Bringin' gifts from far away
But he made it clear he couldn't stay
No harbor was his home

The sailor said " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes
When he told his sailor stories
She could feel the ocean foam rise
She saw its ragin' glory
But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man
And Brandy does her best to understand

At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
And loves a man who's not around
She still can hear him say

She hears him say " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

"Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)

"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

I swear, I'm going to name my first daughter after this song. I'm going to fly to Spain and buy the silver braided chain and the locket.

Brandy is NOT a stripper name.  How shallow to say such a thing.

[pbrick6301]

while i serve the country i am insured of the sound of the voices of brandy insures my resolve.

[WaitWhatWasThat1]

Like if king of queens brought you here

[taffina123]

This song really tells a story. Love it.

[MichelleLaBell10]

This still sounds good.

She could feel the ocean *fall and rise*. :)

I wonder what version this is? There are quite a few versions of this song with various added background instruments, some are sped up slightly and some are slowed slightly.. I know I have at least 6 in my music files on my comp.. Great song BTW!

@batmanmf I thought you to be intelligent until you opened your mouth and proved me wrong as I was enjoying the song but simply having a healthy friendly debate about the sailors' motives/intentions towards BRANDY and if YOU can't appreciate open friendly debates and/or discussion refrain yourself from commentary as you EPITOMIZE your IGNORANCE from the lack of knowing how to express yourself in an intellectual mature manner! SMH. Was that comprehensible enough for you?

@Reepecheep I can appreciate that! Good point!

@slippymitc FYY, Caps aren't ALWAYS the definition of someone shouting/yelling when texting or emailing but simply a means by which a person is expressing themselves BOLDLY as to get their point across. We live in an age of technological advancement so much so that what something stood for/meant a day, a week, a month or even a year ago doesn't necessarily take on the same meaning as CAPS are one them! CAPS now mean one strongly emphasizing and/or stressing a point NOT yelling/shouting at all.
