Brandy in July - Dr. K (Looking Glass Cover).mov

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"
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

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"
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

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
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

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"
(dooda-dit-dooda), (dit-dooda-dit-dooda-dit)

"Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
[FADE]

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

Great lietening, well done mate. Keith.

@keithjones50 Keith - Much appreciation for your comment!

[keonicountry]

I just listened to the original, and I can't decide which I like best, but i can't understand why you finished it without music...I give it a "10"

[paulekotz]

@keonicountry John - I ran out of music. The musicians weren't being paid enough so they left early. Thanks for your support. It means a lot.

[sproutcentral]

You did a great job Paul.

Can't beat a good one hit wonder (Looking Glass that is ...not you of course) ;-))

[paulekotz]

@sproutcentral Dave - Thank you! Looking Glass could never get past how they sounded differently in the studio compared when they performed in concert.

You sound great! Good to hear (and see) you again. Today I realized it's been a long time since I visited many people that I used to visit regularly. I'm in the process of changing that. Take care, my friend.

<3 Maureen :)
