The Lusty Argonian Maid

Verse 1

Beneath the tavern roof

She scrubs the wooden floor

Green scales and apron strings

I watch from the door

Plenty of work

Hard work for the maid

Scrubbing every corner

Until the debt is paid

Chorus

Oh the lusty Argonian maid

Sultry scales and amber eyes

Oh the lusty Argonian maid

Fetching water as the sun dies

With a tray of spiced bread

And a bed of soft hay

She works for the masters

In the heat of the day

Post-Chorus

Polishing the shaft

Stoking up the fire

Kneading every loaf

Quenching his desire

Verse 2

The master brings his weapon

A long and rusted spear

Polish it she must

While the coast is clear

Takes a lot of time

Takes a lot of oil

Rubbing down the metal

Through the midday toil

It is so long

It is so thick

The job is never finished

She must be very quick

Chorus

Oh the lusty Argonian maid

Sultry scales and amber eyes

Oh the lusty Argonian maid

Fetching water as the sun dies

With a tray of spiced bread

And a bed of soft hay

She works

In the heat of the day

Bridge

Kneading the loaf

Letting it rise

Stoking the fire

Under autumn skies

Loaves in the oven

Sausage in the pan

She serves the meal

To the hungry man

Verse 3

My oven is too big

The master softly said

Plenty of room for dough

Before we go to bed

Plenty of heat

Plenty of space

She wipes the flour

From her scaly face

Lifts her tail

Moving the broom

Cleaning the cobwebs

From the empty room

Chorus

Oh the lusty Argonian maid

Sultry scales and amber eyes

Oh the lusty Argonian maid

Fetching water as the sun dies

With a tray of spiced bread

And a bed of soft hay

She works for the masters

In the heat of the day

Post-Chorus

Polishing the shaft

Stoking up the fire

Kneading every loaf

Quenching his desire

Outro

Oh Sweet Lifts-Her-Tail

Polish that spear

And bake a little bread

There is no better tale

Than the one just
