Leah: The Sequel - Paul Kelly

Well, I came to on the beach

Somebody pushing up and down on my chest

I was coughing salty water

Up above me, Leah looking mighty distressed

She said, «Baby, you’re so lucky

You nearly went to your final rest»

Well, my hand was clenched

I was still holding that pearl so tight

When they prised my fingers open

Leah’s dark eyes opened up so wide

I heard her say, «I love you, baby

Oh, my heart is nearly bursting my side»

Leah, Leah

Leah

Leah

Now Leah’s really mine

We got a hut and a boat by the sea

And every Saturday night

She wears that pearl for everybody to see

She says, «This is my man

Look at what he did for me»

Leah, Leah

Leah

Leah

Now I’m working in the cannery

Hosing down the floor for her old man

And I’m hoping I get used to it

'Cause Leah’s got a ten year plan

She’s hidden my snorkel

Says I’m never going diving again

Leah, Leah

Leah

Leah

Leah, Leah
