Shake it, don't break it, baby You gotta let you hair hang down I eat my dinner right out of a garbage can I got my clothes from the lost and found You gotta roll with the punches, spin like a top I don't have much but i've got a lot of personality And that's all that counts When my ship rolls in, i'll be ready, oh yeah And i'll be struttin my stuff through the high class part of town When my ship rolls in, i'll be ready Dazed and kinda lazy I was bailing out my boat with one hand Movin closer and closer to the green silver coast I wasn't happy 'til my feet hit the sand You gotta eat right through the bone, gotta chip away the stone I got rocks in my head and my pants You're a land lover baby, and i'm your supply and demand When my ship rolls in, i'll be ready, oh yeah And i'll be struttin my stuff through the high class part of town When my ship rolls in, i'll be ready Shakin it Drivin real fast in my limousine I got two girls in the back, it's the american dream There's so much money but so little time It seems like yesterday i didn't have a dime (not a dime) Got me a mansion and a swimming pool, living this luxury is totally cool It's a long way from the bottom and a short drop from the top Now that my ship's come in i ain't gonna stop
