In Callao there lives a gal
\nWhose name is Serafina
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nShe sleeps all day and ‚works‘ all night
\nOn the old Cally Marina
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!
\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n2. She’s the queen, me boys, of all the gals
\nThat live in the ole‘ Casino,
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nShe used to ‚kiss‘ for monkey nuts
\nBut now she ‚works‘ for vino.
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. At robbin‘ silly sailors, boys,
\nNo gal was ever keener
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nShe’ll make you pay right through the nose,
\nThat lovely Serafina!
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. She’ll guzzle pisco, beer and gin,
\nOn rum her mum did wean her
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nShe smokes just like a chimney stack
\nOn a P.S.N.C steamer.
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Serafina’s got no ’shoes‘,
\nI been ashore an‘ seen ‚er
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nShe’s got no time to put them on,
\nThat hard-worked Serafina.
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. When I was young an‘ in me prime,
\nI first met Serafina
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nIn Callao we saw the sights
\nAn‘ then went up to Lima.
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7. But the finest sight I ever saw
\nWas little Serafina,
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nBut the very next day as we sailed away,
\nI wished I’d never been there.
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
8. For I wuz skint, me clothes wuz gone,
\nAn‘ so wuz Serafina.
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nShe’d done me brown, she’d sunk me down,
\nThat dirty she-hyena!
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. I used to love a little girl
\nWhose name was Serafina
\nSerafina! Serafina!
\nBut she’s gone off with a Dago man
\nWho plays a concertina.
\nSerafina! Oh, Serafina!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
