We found her smoking merrily in the balmoral hotel And we knew she was our only one-eyed northern belle With shamus up the mizzen-mast and willie at the head
Oh we set to sea A 1, 2, 3! A new fine wench in the cabin bed
The kraken rising from the depths below He never counted on mary, from the snow
The sea was rolling merrily round the shores of bowen isle Ah, the swedish bastard sang a song That made dear mary smile Then I gave the sailor's prayer, me boys We roared out in the rain
And below the sea A 1, 2, 3! The monster heard our sad refrain
The kraken rising from the depth below He never counted on mary from the snow
Oh mary, the one-eyed cherry Dawson city, we loved her so Oh mary, the beast was angry And you stood ready With a mortal blow!
With arms the size of houses They knocked us to and fro We cursed out as the kraken Made to drag us down below
And the last thing that I saw before I screamed our last good-bye Was the redhead whore That we adored With murder in her one good eye
The kraken rising from the depths below He never counted on mary from the snow
Oh mary, the one-eyed cherry Dawson city, we loved her so Oh mary, the beast was angry And you stood ready With a mortal blow!
The kraken rising from the depths below He never counted on mary from the snow
She was mary, the one-eyed cherry Dawson city, we loved her so Oh mary, the beast was angry And you stood ready With a mortal blow!
