Role reversal, woman has evil way with sailor

I would like lyrics to complete the following song that I heard from two Canadian girls many years ago.

One fine summer's day a woman went walking,
Down by the river so gentle and free
And there she espied a beautiful sailor,
Sitting alone in the shade of a tree.

She boldly stepped up to this young man,
"Pray tell to me from whence you came,
For my eyes have not feasted on such beauty
And may never do so again."

"Oh madam, I am a lonely sailor,
Recently returned from sea."
...la la la la ?????????

Help! 17 sodding years later, still no words. Please help!

No, don't. See the other threads, some of which contain much more information. This one should have been left dead.

So, Malcolm, why exactly should this one have been left dead? None of the other threads answer the question.

They eliminate some of the more obvious irrelevant suggestions, that's why.

... and the first post neatly links to most of them
