Jimmy Rushing - Shipwrecked Blues lyrics
Artist: Jimmy Rushing
album: Good Ol' 5 x 5
All the gale is raging
And my ship's without a sail
Yes, the gale is raging
And my ship's without a sail
If the wind keeps on blowing
I won't be left to tell the tale
Life preserver, tell me, what am I to do?
Life preserver, tell me, what am I to do?
If my ship hits the bottom
I know I'll float the ocean blue
♪
Shipwreck, shipwreck
She ain't got no time to lose
Shipwreck, shipwreck
She ain't got no time to lose
Lord, if someone don't save me
I'll go down saying this shipwreck blue
Oh, the shipwreck blue
And my ship's without a sail
Yes, the gale is raging
And my ship's without a sail
If the wind keeps on blowing
I won't be left to tell the tale
Life preserver, tell me, what am I to do?
Life preserver, tell me, what am I to do?
If my ship hits the bottom
I know I'll float the ocean blue
♪
Shipwreck, shipwreck
She ain't got no time to lose
Shipwreck, shipwreck
She ain't got no time to lose
Lord, if someone don't save me
I'll go down saying this shipwreck blue
Oh, the shipwreck blue
