When the waters is rough
The sailing is tough
I'll get drowned in your loveYou've got a cut throat crew, yeah
I'm going to sink under you
Oh I've got the bell bottom blues
It's going to be the death of meYeah, yeah, it's the graveyard watch
Running right on the rocks
I've taken all of the knocksYou ain't giving me no quarter
I'd rather drink sea water
Oh I wish I'd never had brought you
It's going to the death of meSoul survivor
That's what I'm talking about...
It's going to be the death of me
Yeah, when you're flying your flags
All my confidence sags
You've got me packing my bagsI'll stow away at sea
Yeah, you make me mutiny
Where you are I won't be
You're going to be the death of me, yeahThat's what I said
That's what I'm talking about
That's what I tell you (...)
