Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Little Empty Boat Lyrics
You found me at some partyYou thought Id understandYou barreled over to meWith a drink in each handI respect your beliefs, girl,And I consider you a friend,But Ive already been born once,I dont wanna to be born again.Your knowledge is impressiveAnd your argument is goodBut I am the resurrection, babe,And youre standing on my foot!But my little boat is emptyIt dont goAnd my oar is brokenIt dont row, row, rowBut my little boat is emptyIt dont goAnd my oar is brokenIt dont row, row, row(row!)Your tiny little faceKeeps yapping in the gloomSeven steps behind meWith your dustpan and broom.I couldnt help but imagine youAll postured and proneBut theres a little guy on my shoulderSays I should go home alone.You keep leaning in on meAnd youre looking pretty pissedThat grave youve dug between your legsIs hard to resist.But my little boat is emptyIt dont goAnd my oar is brokenIt dont row, row, rowBut my little boat is emptyIt dont goAnd my oar is brokenIt dont row, row, rowGive to God what belongs to godAnd give the rest to meTell our gracious host to ***** himselfIts time for us to leave.But my little boat is emptyIt dont goAnd my oar is brokenIt dont row, row, rowBut my little boat is emptyIt dont goAnd my oar is brokenIt dont row, row, rowRow...row...row...row...
