Testo Ship of Fools - Dead & Company
Testo della canzone Ship of Fools (Dead & Company), tratta dall'album Madison Square Garden, New York, NY 11/12/17 (Live)
Went to see the captain
The strangest I could find
Laid my proposition down
Laid it on the line
"I won't slave for beggar's pay
Likewise gold and jewels
I would slave to learn the way
To sink your ship of fools"
Ship of fools
On a cruel sea
Ship of fools
Sail away from me
It was later than I thought
When I first believed you
Now I cannot share your laughter
Ship of fools
I saw your first ship sink and drown
From ragged and knotted wood
And all that could not sink or swim
Was just left there to float
I won't leave you drifting down
Oh, it makes me wild
With thirty years upon my head
To have you call me child
Ship of fools
On a cruel sea
Ship of fools
Sail away from me
It was later than I thought
When I first believed you
Now I cannot share your laughter
Ship of fools
Ship of fools
On a cruel sea
Ship of fools
Sail away from me
It was later than I thought
When I first believed you
Now I cannot share your laughter
Ship of fools
The bottles stand as empty
As they were filled before
Time there was a-plenty
From that cup no more
Though I could not caution all
I still might warn a few
To take a drink in moderation
Lay down and sleep in peace
I'd take a drink with you
Ship of fools
On a cruel sea
Ship of fools
Sail away from me
It was later than I thought
When I first believed you
Now I cannot share your laughter
Ship of fools
Ship of fools
On a cruel sea
Ship of fools
Sail away from me
Ship of fools
On a cruel sea
Ship of fools
Sail away from me
It was later than I thought
When I first believed you
Now I cannot share
Your laughter
Ship of fools
