| E | G | D | A | |
| There she | is pa | rading on the | quayside |
| E | G | D | A | |
| You can | find her | every | night |
| E | G | D | A | |
| Ah, | waiting for a | stevedore from | Tyneside ? |
| E | C# | C | B | E | |
| Why it's | Rene, the | doc | ker's | de- | light! |
| E | G | D | A | |
| Well, | if you | just got | off an oil | tanker |
| E | G | D | A | |
| And you've | got the | readies in the | bin |
| E | G | D | A | |
| Just | make your | way down | to The Crown & | Anchor |
| E | C# | C | B | E | |
| Ask for | Rene and | you'll | be | well | in. |
| Chorus: |
| E | A | E | G# | |
| She's | Rene, the | docker's delight, and a | ship's in | every night |
| A | B | Bb | A | |
| Romping with a stoker from the coast of Kuala Lum | pur |
| A | |
| Love is like an 'ole in the wall |
| E | |
| A | line-up in the warehouse no trouble at all |
| F# | |
| If | you can spare the money, you'll have a ball |
| B | |
| She'll have | yours |
| E | G | D | A | |
| Well, | there's a | kid of | every shape and | colour |
| E | G | D | A | |
| Safely | hid in | coal-sheds, double | locked |
| E | G | D | A | |
| Where | it's been | said that | Rene is the | mother |
| E | C# | C | B | E | |
| I | wonder - well, | ther | e yo | u go | ! |
| (Chorus) |
