Cynthia Hopkins – Song For The Servants lyrics

says the lovely maid the lovely maid the lovely maid of Mayako:
"mussels and clams won’t you buy my clams?
large fish and small fish and mussels and clams
oh, the sun does set, and once it’s down, the light is gone;
so let us drink, and keep on drinking, until the day breaks the night so long"
says the lovely maid the lovely maid the lovely maid of Mayako
"scarlet and gold won’t you buy my gold?
brocades and damasks and scarlet and gold
I dreamed I was on a hell-bound train, surrounded by sinners all trussed up in chains; and at the helm in a fury of fire, the Devil himself held the reigns"
says the lovely maid the lovely maid the lovely maid of Mayako
