A sailor at sea for years
|
With weathered skin, an untamed beard
|
Somewhere hidden within he had a secret, he couldn't swim
|
Suddenly pulled overboard 50 yards from shore
|
A belt of lead around his waist pulled him to the floor
|
This sailor he won't flail his chest is filled with pride
|
In this life I can't swim, but soon I'm gonna fly
|
|
I'd rather drown tonight than let them know that I can't swim
|
That's what he said as he sunk to the bottom
|
|
Now his secret is safe at the bottom of the sea
|
Buried just like treasure that's where it will be
|
It's a treasure no man wants or ever will seek
|
His secret is safe with me
|
|
I'd rather drown tonight than let them know that I can't swim
|
That's what he said as he sunk to the bottom
|
|
I'd rather drown tonight (I'd rather drown tonight)
|
Than let them know that I can't swim (I'd rather drown tonight)
|
That's what he said (I'd rather drown tonight)
|
As he sunk to the bottom
|
|
Rather drown tonight than let them know that I can't swim
|
That's what he said as he sunk to the bottom
|
