Mona Lyrics - Singles - Mike Batt

I have spent some heavy nights 

like every sailor 

and I know some seedy ways to spend my pay. 

I've been arrested in the streets 

I've been drunk along the beaches of Marseilles. 

And you know that when I left 

I said I loved you 

But you think I've got a girl in every town 

When the hidden harbour whores 

Whisper softly from their doors

I turn them down. 

Mona 

will you help me to unload my contraband? 

I've been saving it for you. 

I've ignored the crimson daughters on the quays of Amsterdam 

And that's not an easy thing to do. 

I keep away from the girls in San Francisco 

'cause I know my self-control won't last for long 

And a man could lose his head 

With a little help from the hookers of Hong Kong. 

And as I sail across these endless oceans 

I think of you each mile along the way

Mona 

will you help me to unload my contraband? 

I've been saving it for you. 

I've ignored the crimson daughters on the quays of Amsterdam 

And that's not an easy thing to do.
