Michael

Lyrics

On the first day Our ship sank and we rowed away Our spirits were good We knew we would Make it someday It's lonely at sea I must row, row to be free To stop from goin' down To land this ship aground Is all that's left of me Michael, please row the boat ashore Fill me with the strength Cool me with a drink That'll take us to the shore The captain said, "Hey, son It's been days since we've begun Let that man row He'll take us to the shore Before the great storm" This littlе man stood up Grabbed the oars and started to row Pullеd back with great pain As he cried out his name And we moved toward the shore He cried: Michael, please row the boat ashore Fill me with the strength Cool me with a drink That'll take us to the shore Stand tall, I said (Stand tall, I said) Don't look back now, we're moving ahead With a will of stone We reach out on our own As we pulled toward the shore He cried: Michael Michael Row, row, row Michael Michael Row that boat Michael Don't look back now Land that ship aground
