(Verse)
|
The very own Marie Celeste
|
Never was an easy ride.
|
She stood somebody so proud,
|
Couldn¡¯t trust no more if he tried.
|
|
Right now the hatches in the twilight
|
Strike a flag of dignity
|
Now the captain wants to lead me to the gallo,
|
Or find me for mutiny.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
What¡¯s the use, man, I ain¡¯t got a dime,
|
I ain¡¯t got money on your name,
|
Say ain¡¯t got none of mine.
|
|
(Verse)
|
No one said it would be easy,
|
But my God, how we tried.
|
Some of them cruel and crazy,
|
Some of them just dead inside.
|
You drove some good men to the bottom
|
For some of them tore a hole in their pride.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
So what¡¯s the use, man, you know we ain¡¯t got a dime.
|
I ain¡¯t got money on your name,
|
Say ain¡¯t got none of mine.
|
No, I ain¡¯t got no money into your name,
|
Say I ain¡¯t got none of mine.
|
|
(Verse)
|
Sailing on these earned waters,
|
The longer than I can recall.
|
We set sail believing
|
You was all for one and one for all.
|
This time I jump ship and here for drowling
|
Unless you want to drown us all.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
So what¡¯s the use, man, you know I ain¡¯t got a dime
|
I ain¡¯t got money in your name,
|
Say I ain¡¯t got none of mine.
|
No, I ain¡¯t got money into your name,
|
Said I ain¡¯t got none of mine.
|
No, I ain¡¯t got no money into your name,
|
Say I ain¡¯t got nones of mine.
