You gentlemen can watch while I'm scrubbin' the floorAnd I'm scrubbin' the floor while you're gawkingAnd maybe once you tipped me and it made you feel swellIn a ratty waterfront in this ratty-old hotelBut 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 nightAnd 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 FreighterWith a skull on its masthead will be comin' inThen you gentlemen can say, Hey girl, finish the floorsGet upstairs, make the beds, earn your keep hereYou toss me your tips and look out at the shipsBut I'm countin' your headsWhile I make up the beds'Cuz there's nobody gonna sleep hereTonight, none of you will sleep hereThen, that night, there's a bang in the nightAnd you yelled, Who's that kicking up a row?And ya see me kinda starin' out the windowAnd you say, What's she got to stare at now?And the ship, the Black FreighterTurns around in the harborShootin' guns from the bowThen you gentlemen can wipe off the laugh from your faceEvery building in town is a flat oneYour whole stinking place will be down to the groundOnly this cheap hotel standin' up safe and soundAnd 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-doYou wonder, who's the person lives up there?Then you see me steppin' out in the mornin'Lookin' nice with a ribbon in my hairAnd the ship, the Black FreighterRuns the flag up its mastheadAnd a cheer rings the airBy noontime the dockIs a' swarmin' with menComin' off of that ghostly freighterAnd they're movin' in the shadowsWhere no one can seeAnd they're chainin' up peopleAnd bringin' them to meAskin' meKill them now or later?Askin' meKill them now, or later?Noon by the clockAnd so still on the dockYou can hear the foghorn miles awayIn that quiet of deathI'll say, Right nowThen they'll pile up the bodiesAnd I'll say, That'll learn yaAnd the shipThe Black FreighterDisappears out to seaAnd on it is me
