[00:01.65]Pirate Jenny (LP Version) - Judy Collins
[00:04.58]You gentlemen can watch while I'm scrubbin the floor
[00:07.76]And I'm scrubbin' the floor while you're gawking
[00:11.26]And maybe once you tipped me and it made you feel swell
[00:14.94]In a ratty waterfront in this ratty old hotel
[00:18.06]But you'll never know to who you're talkin
[00:21.18]You never know to who you're talkin
[00:24.74]Suddenly one night there's a scream in the night
[00:27.92]And you yelled What the hell could that have been
[00:30.85]And you see me kinda grinnin while I'm scrubbin
[00:35.41]And you say What's she got to grin
[00:39.71]And the ship a Black Freighter
[00:46.08]With a skull on its masthead will be comin in
[00:55.67]Then you gentlemen can say Hey girl finish the floors
[00:59.78]Get upstairs make the beds earn your keep here
[01:02.34]You toss me your tips and look out at the ships
[01:06.14]But I'm countin' your heads
[01:07.89]While I make up the beds
[01:09.39]Cuz there's nobody gonna sleep here
[01:12.69]Tonight none of you will sleep here
[01:16.69]Then that night there's a bang in the night
[01:19.69]And you yelled Who's that kicking up a row
[01:23.19]And ya see me kinda starin out the window
[01:27.55]And you say What's she got to stare at now
[01:32.36]And the ship the Black Freighter
[01:39.16]Turns around in the harbor
[01:43.52]Shootin guns from the bow
[01:50.33]Then you gentlemen can wipe off the laugh from your face
[01:54.01]Every building in town is a flat one
[01:57.38]Your whole stinking place will be down to the ground
[02:00.69]Only this cheap hotel standin' up safe and sound
[02:04.74]And you ask Why did they spare that one
[02:08.30]And you ask Why did they spare that one
[02:12.51]All the night through with the noise and to do
[02:15.49]You wonder who's the person lives up there
[02:19.30]Then you see me steppin' out in the mornin
[02:23.91]Lookin' nice with a ribbon in my hair
[02:30.36]And the ship the Black Freighter
[02:37.41]Runs the flag up its masthead
[02:40.97]And a cheer rings the air
[02:49.21]By noontime the dock
[02:50.76]Is a' swarmin' with men
[02:52.64]Comin' off of that ghostly freighter
[02:56.38]And they're movin' in the shadows
[02:58.32]Where no one can see
[03:00.12]And they're chainin' up people
[03:01.87]And bringin' them to me
[03:03.43]Askin' me
[03:04.74]Kill them now or later
[03:07.30]Askin' me
[03:08.86]Kill them now or later
[03:13.48]Noon by the clock
[03:15.42]And so still on the dock
[03:20.01]You can hear the foghorn miles away
[03:25.63]In that quiet of death
[03:29.75]I'll say Right now
[03:34.61]Then they'll pile up the bodies
[03:37.48]And I'll say That'll learn ya
[03:43.22]And the ship
[03:47.09]The Black Freighter
[03:51.78]Disappears out to sea and on it is me

Pirate Jenny (LP Version) - Judy Collins
You gentlemen can watch while I'm scrubbin the floor
And I'm scrubbin' the floor while you're gawking
And maybe once you tipped me and it made you feel swell
In a ratty waterfront in this ratty old hotel
But you'll never know to who you're talkin
You never know to who you're talkin
Suddenly one night there's a scream in the night
And you yelled What the hell could that have been
And you see me kinda grinnin while I'm scrubbin
And you say What's she got to grin
And the ship a Black Freighter
With a skull on its masthead will be comin in
Then you gentlemen can say Hey girl finish the floors
Get upstairs make the beds earn your keep here
You toss me your tips and look out at the ships
But I'm countin' your heads
While I make up the beds
Cuz there's nobody gonna sleep here
Tonight none of you will sleep here
Then that night there's a bang in the night
And you yelled Who's that kicking up a row
And ya see me kinda starin out the window
And you say What's she got to stare at now
And the ship the Black Freighter
Turns around in the harbor
Shootin guns from the bow
Then you gentlemen can wipe off the laugh from your face
Every building in town is a flat one
Your whole stinking place will be down to the ground
Only this cheap hotel standin' up safe and sound
And you ask Why did they spare that one
And you ask Why did they spare that one
All the night through with the noise and to do
You wonder who's the person lives up there
Then you see me steppin' out in the mornin
Lookin' nice with a ribbon in my hair
And the ship the Black Freighter
Runs the flag up its masthead
And a cheer rings the air
By noontime the dock
Is a' swarmin' with men
Comin' off of that ghostly freighter
And they're movin' in the shadows
Where no one can see
And they're chainin' up people
And bringin' them to me
Askin' me
Kill them now or later
Askin' me
Kill them now or later
Noon by the clock
And so still on the dock
You can hear the foghorn miles away
In that quiet of death
I'll say Right now
Then they'll pile up the bodies
And I'll say That'll learn ya
And the ship
The Black Freighter
Disappears out to sea and on it is me
