Testo Leaky Little Boat Roger Clyne The Peacemakers
I awake from a long, deep sleep
In a leaky little boat on a wide blue sea
I spy no island, rock or shore
And the sea, sheâs a-cominâ to me through a hole in the floor
And the tide come in and the tide go out
And the waves they come toss my little boat about
And the sky turn black and the sky turn blue
I got no pail, no sail, no anchor, too
Just a leaky little boat
And as I wake I look around
I have no notion where Iâm bound
So many different colored boats I see
Are all leaky, lonely and driftinâ
Just like me
And the tide come in and the tide go outâ¦.
I spy no island rock or shore
And the sea keeps a-cominâ to me through a hole in the floor
Of my leaky little boat
Alone, adrift, together are we
Slowly sinkinâ in a deep blue sea
But we smile and we wave
And we say, âIâm afraidâ¦and I love youâ¦and here we goâ¦â
