My mother-in-law Lizzie had a completely different take on the second verse - she sang about "what came next"... I have never found nor heard it sung anywhere else. Would be great if someone could revive it: V2: I showed him the way to go home, And I showed him the way to go to bed, I showed him where I was tattooed, From the tips of my toes to my head. I had the all clear on my back, And the ship sailing over the foam. When he asked for more, I opened the door, And showed him the way to go home (then a final chorus) Thanks for all the memories Lizzie...
