Thread Name: Lyr Add: Oh Brandy Leave Me Alone (Josef Marais)
Subject: LYRICS ADD: Oh, Brandy, Leave Me Alone]
There is a song of this title in the db and it is credited to Joseph Marais, but the verses aren't much like the version on an old ten-inch lp I used to have of Marais and Miranda. Here's the song, as much as I remember of it:

"Oh, Brandy, Leave Me Alone" (chorus_
Oh, brandy, leave me alone,
Oh, brandy, leave me alone,
Oh, brandy, leave me alone:
Remember, I must go home.

My sweetheart would never know me
If she could only see me now,
With a drink in my hand,
And a frown on my brow.

(chorus)
I tried talking to her father
To put a good word in for me,
But her father said, "No, sir, You're no son for me."

(chorus)

If anyone knows any of the other verses, I'd love to see them added. --seed
