The locals have a story they say
The Strangest thing did happen one day
I was glued to my seat while they told the tale
Of four weird ladies and the vessel they sailed
The Boat was dark and varnished black
No Mariner. crew aboard in fact
Upon the deck so tall with splendour
Four ladies in search of adventure
Luckily the sea was calm
Not like them to chance there arm
To set sail before a storm
A blue sky day would be the norm
The locals have a story they say
The Strangest thing did happen one day
I was glued to my seat while they told the tale
Of four weird ladies and the vessel they sailed
With the clear sky and lovely weather
They seemed to move as one together
Above there heads were large umbrellas
Certainly not local dwellers
Hats sat perched upon those heads
The dockers began to feel a dread
The woman held a long brass chain
It went around and round again
The locals have a story they say
The Strangest thing did happen one day
I was glued to my seat while they told the tale
Of four weird ladies and the vessel they sailed
It seemed to steer the vintage boat
It kept the helm straight and afloat
Where they came from no one knows
They spoke the tongue of an Alien code
Their skin an ashen shade of grey
The moon darkened and faded away
The Alien woman spoke as one
The port master fetched his gun
The locals have a story they say
The Strangest thing did happen one day
I was glued to my seat while they told the tale
Of four weird ladies and the vessel they sailed
All seemed to gasp as they came ashore
Very strange and that's for sure
They reached out a hand not to behold
but to offer all a chest of gold
This left the locals with grins so wide
The boat left rocking on the tide
And so it was the story goes
Where they went for no one knows
The locals have a story they say
The Strangest thing did happen one day
I was glued to my seat while they told the tale
Of four weird ladies and the vessel they sailed
The towns folk spent there share of gold
And to this day will still grow old
These tales are true and some might say
They may even return another day
But don't bank on it or even bet
For my hairs turned grey and My ears are wet.
But don't bank on it or even bet
For my hairs turned grey and My ears are wet
