Out
upon the island on a cool summer night
Buddy, you don't have to hurry
Take your time
What you need is on the menu and you get it tonight
Buddy, you got women's on your mind
Chorus:
Could this be magic
Or could this be love
Could this turn tragic
You know that magic often does
Refrain:
And I see lonely ships upon the water
Better save the women and children first
Sail away with someone's daughter
Better save the women first
I hear music on the landin'
And ther's laughter in the air
Just could be your boat is comin' in
Yeah, you're leanin' back
And your foot's tappin' and you got your head right
There's a full moon tonight
Baby, let's begin
She said
Could this be magic
Or could this be love
And I said
Could this turn tragic
You know that magic often does
And I said
And I see lonely ships upon the water
Better save the women and children first
Sail away with someone's daughter
Better save the women first
