You got a lot in common
With bottles of rum.
You linger on my tongue
And always end up gone.
So if I’m cursed with this old
Worn out sailors mouth
Then let me play this part my dear.
Over and out.
I won’t lie,
I’m not coming home tonight
So don’t you bother
waiting for the flood lights.
There’s nowhere else for me to be
But out here lost at sea.
I’ll Drift away
And let the waves rock me to sleep
As I count the hearts,
I wore upon my wrists, like sheep.
And when I wake
I hope the current washed away
Any thought I had that
you’d Possibly stay
I won’t lie,
I’m not coming home tonight
So don’t you bother
waiting for the flood lights.
There’s nowhere else for me to be
But out here lost at sea.
It’s high tide But I’m doing just fine
Singing shanty’s
not waiting for the landline
To pick up so That I hear your voice.
No more sirens. No Sailor’s Choice.
If this ship goes down
I won’t abandon hope
That I’ll end up at shore
Somewhere across the coast
But if I lose my sea legs
Don't you be my dockhand.
May Davey Jones take me in.
I’ll llive my life with the damned.
I won’t lie,
I’m not coming home tonight
So don’t you bother
waiting for the flood lights.
There’s nowhere else for me to be
But out here lost at sea.
It’s high tide But I’m doing just fine
Singing shanty’s
not waiting for the landline
To pick up so That I hear your voice.
No more sirens. No Sailor’s Choice.
