Captain For Dark Mornings Lyrics - New York Tendaberry (exp) - Laura Nyro

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 

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 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 

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
