Rene - Original |
There she is parading on the quayside |
You can find her every night |
Ah, waiting for a stevedore from Tyneside — |
Why it’s Rene, the docker’s delight! |
Well, if you just got off an oil tanker |
And you’ve got the readies in the bin (Readies = cash and having them 'in the |
bin' means having money) |
Just make your way down to The Crown & Anchor |
Ask for Rene (ohh, hello ducks!) and you’ll be well in |
She’s Rene, the docker’s delight, and a ship’s in every night |
Groping with a stoker from the coast of Kuala Lumpur |
Love is like an 'ole in the wall |
A line-up in the warehouse no trouble at all |
If you can spare the money, you’ll have a ball — |
She’ll have yours |
Well, there’s a kid of every shape and colour |
Safely hid in coal-shed double locked (this alludes to black kids by white |
prostitutes, hidden away) |
Well it’s been said that Rene is the mother |
I wonder — well, there you go! |
She’s Rene, the docker’s delight, and a ship’s in every night |
Groping with a stoker from the coast of Kuala Lumpur |
