>>	The dark lady is a mercedes lackey song
>>
>>This is incorrect.  "The Dark Lady" was written (lyrics and music) by a
>>lady named Bernadette Gillese and gifted to the Houston band "Ceili's
>>Muse" about seven years ago.  It is featured on their 4th album of the
>>same title.  When Ceili's Muse broke up a few years ago, rights to the
>>song were given to Melanie O'Sullivan, who was the lead singer on that
>>album.  She has since performed the song with a few other groups,
>>including "Encarnation" - a band I was fortunate enough to belong to.
>>With her permission, I am posting the correct lyrics to this song.
>>
>>There is also a follow-up song called "Carlotta," written by Diane
>>Ullman & Encarnation, which was performed by Encarnation.

>>	The Dark Lady
>>	by Bernadette Gillese
>>
>>> A fierce one eyed man named Baron La Bone
>>	A meaner pirate had never been known, and he sailed on the Dark
>>Lady.
>>> A ship strong and sound with a perilous crew
>>	And high on the mast the skull and bones flew; fleet and swift
>>was the Dark Lady.
>>
>>> chorus: And every night the Baron would drink a toast!
>>			He'd say, "Here's to our lovely Lady host;
>>			my one true love."  "Here, here!" the crew
>>replied,
>>			And the Dark Lady sighed.
>>
>>> A rich Spanish galleon was spotted one night
>>	The Dark Lady's crew prepared for the fight - clash of steel.
>>No Spaniards survived it,
>>> Except for the maiden with dark eyes so bold
>>	Found in the hull with the jewels and gold; La Bone laughed and
>>he took her for ransom.
>>
>>	chorus: And every night the Baron would drink a toast!
>>			He'd say, "Here's to our lovely Lady host;
>>			my one true love."  "Here, here!" the crew
>>replied,
>>			And the Dark Lady sighed.
>>
>>> The girl Charlotta was a beauty quite rare
>>	With each passing night La Bone couldn't bear his empty bed.  He
>>brought her to it.
>>> The Baron soon found he felt more than desire.
>>> His love for her grew and his soul filled with fire.  He proclaimed
>>> that they would marry.
>>>
>>> chorus:	That night the Baron drank with jubilee.
>>			He said, "Here's to my lovely bride-to-be;
>>			My one true love!"  "Here, here!" the crew
>>replied
>>			And the Dark Lady cried.
>>
>>> The following night a storm brewed at sea.
>>	The Dark Lady saw her chance to be free of her rival, the beauty
>>Carlotta.
>>> The ship steered herself to the heart of the gale
>>> where a wave swept the maiden out over the rail; sweet revenge on an
>>> unfaithful lover.
>>>
>>> chorus:	That night, the Lady drank a toast.
>>			She said, "Here's to your lovely Lady host,
>>			Your one true love!"  No voices replied.
>>			And the Dark Lady smiled.
>>
>>> And now any night when a storm fills the sky
>>	They say that a ghost ship sails in its eye - fleet and swift is
>>the Dark Lady.
>>> A ship strong and sound with a perilous crew
>>	And high on the mast the skull and bones flew while the captain
>>gazes out to sea.
>>
>>> chorus: And every night the Baron must drink a toast.
>>			He'd say, "Here's to our lovely Lady host;
>>			my one true love."  "Here, here!" the ghost crew
>>replies,
>>			And the Dark Lady sighs.
