Tom Waits - Shiver Me Timbers Lyrics
Im leavin my famlyLeavin all my friendsMy bodys at homeBut my hearts in the windWhere the clouds are like headlinesOn a new front page skyMy tears are salt waterAnd the moons full and highAnd I know martin edensGonna be proud of meAnd many before meWhove been called by the seaTo be up in the crows nestSingin my sayShiver me timberscause Im a-sailin awayAnd the fogs liftinAnd the sands shiftinIm driftin on outOl captain ahabHe aint got nothin on me, now.So swallow me, dont follow meIm travlin aloneBlue waters my daughtern Im gonna skip like a stoneSo please call my missusGotta tell her not to crycause my goodbye is writtenBy the moon in the skyHey and nobody knows meI cant fathom my stayinShiver me timberscause Im a-sailin awayAnd the fogs liftinAnd the sands shiftinIm driftin on outOl captain ahabHe aint got nothin on meSo come and swallow me, follow meIm travlin aloneBlue waters my daughtern Im gonna skip like a stoneAnd Im leavin my familyLeavin all my friendsMy bodys at homeBut my hearts in the windWhere the clouds are like headlinesUpon a new front page skyAnd shiver me timberscause Im a-sailin away
