Lorelei Lyrics - Sings George Gershwin - Sarah Vaughan

Back in the days of knights in armor 

There once lived a lovely charmer 

Swimming in the Rhine 

Her figure was divine 

She had a yen for all the sailors 

Fishermen and gobs and whalers 

She had a most immoral eye 

They called her Lorelei 

She created quite a stir 

And I want to be like her

I want to be like that gal on the river 

Who sang her song to the ships passing by 

She had the goods and how she could deliver 

The Lorelei 

She used to love in a strange kind of fashion 

With lots of hey-ho-de-ho-hi-de-hi 

And I can guarantee I'm full of passion 

Like the Lorelei 

I'm treacherous, yeah, yeah 

Oh, I just can't hold myself in check 

I'm lecherous, yeah, yeah 

I want to bite my initials on a sailor's neck 

Each affair has a kick and a wallop 

For what they crave, I can always supply 

I want to be just like that other trollop 

The Lorelei 

I want to be just like that other trollop 

The Lorelei
