Standard (EADGBE)

 Key:

Intro

There she is parading on the quayside

You can find her every night

Ah, waiting for a stevedore from Tyneside ?

 Why it's Rene, the docker's de-light!

 Well, if you just got off an oil tanker

And you've got the readies in the bin

 Just make your way down to The Crown & Anchor

 Ask for Rene and you'll be well in.

Chorus

 She's Rene, the docker's delight, and a ship's in every night

Romping with a stoker from the coast of Kuala Lumpur

Love is like an 'ole in the wall

 A line-up in the warehouse no trouble at all

 If you can spare the money, you'll have a ball

 She'll have yours

 Well, there's a kid of every shape and colour

Safely hid in coal-sheds, double locked

 Where it's been said that Rene is the mother

 I wonder - well, there you go!

(Chorus)
