Ship Rolls In |
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 strutting 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 |
Moving 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 strutting my stuff through the high class part of town |
When my ship rolls in, I’ll be ready |
Shaking it |
Driving 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 |
