Shiver Me Timbers

Lyrics

I'm leavin' my fam'ly and leavin' my friends My body's at home and my heart's in the wind Where the clouds are like headlines on a new front page sky My tears are salt water and the moon's full and high And I know Martin Eden is gonna be proud of me And many before me who've been called by the sea To be up in the crow's nest and singin' my say And shiver me timbers I'm a-sailin' away The fog's liftin' and the sand's shiftin' and I'm driftin' on out And Ol' Captain Ahab he ain't got nothin' on me So come on and swallow me, don't follow me I travel alone Blue water's(4) my daughter and I'm skipping like a stone So please call my missus, tell her not to cry My goodbye is written by the moon in the sky Hey, and nobody knows me I can't fathom my stayin' And shiver me timbers I'm a-sailin' away And the fog's liftin' and the sand's shiftin' and I'm driftin' on out Ol' Captain Ahab he ain't got nothin' on me So come on and swallow me, don't follow me I travel alone Blue water's my daughter and I'm skipping like a stone And I'm leavin' my family leavin' my friends My body's at home but my heart's in the wind Where the clouds are like headlines on a new front page sky And shiver me timbers I'm a-sailin' away
