Her hair was brown and her eyes were blue and her heart was green with envy To pass the time she would smile at you, and her smile was cast at many She lived alone in a harbor town, her tears and her men were salty He met her there and she grabbed his arm saying, Sir, your heart seems faulty And then she shot him a glance said, You've still got a chance to be loose and unencumbered And with every kiss, upon her list, his name was logged and numbered She's a sizzling lass, with a tight firm grasp, of what is and ain't a lover Oh but Sally Rollin never touched his soul but the rest of him she covered And through the years coming in from the sea the sailors' hearts were needy And Sally would lay on the table a spread for she knew they needed feeding The ripest fruit and the freshest meat, all tender and warm and juicy Ah but Sally Rollin never learned to cook, or so said her sister Lucy And then she'd shoot them a glance say'n, You've still got a chance to be loose and unencumbered And with every kiss, upon her list, their names were logged and numbered She's a sizzling lass, with a tight firm grasp, of what is and ain't a lover Oh but Sally Rollin never touched a soul although the rest of a man she covered The word spread around this harbor town that the sailors all were eating At Sally's place with smiles on their faces, getting what they were needing The preacher swore this was something more and she was filled with false intentions He said, "Sally Rollin never feeds no one, without three forms of prevention And then she shot him a glance say'n, "You've still got a chance to be loose and unencumbered And with every kiss, upon her list, his name was logged and numbered She's a sizzling lass, with a tight firm grasp, of what is and ain't a lover Oh but Sally Rollin never touched his soul although the rest of the priest she covered
