Lyrics Mayday Man - Jamestown Revival

Mayday Man

I took a stairway straight to the top
I kept on climbin', I never stopped to smell the rose
That’s just the way it goes
I made a dollar, I tasted blood
I needed water, I found a flood, oh my
And I almost drank enough to die
Took my Jon boat out to sea and the waves grew high
S.O.S., now, can you help me?
I’m takin' water on just about as fast as I can
Could you lend me a hand?
S.O.S., now, can you help me?
I asked myself, how could anybody else understand
This wasn’t a part of my plan?
I do the best that I can
Mayday man
Thought it was easy, I’d seen it done
Thought it would please me to make it to the other side
I wasn’t ready for the ride
I felt the thunder rip through my sail
It took me under, got swallowed by a whale, oh my
I guess he saw that weakness in my eye
Took me right out on out to sea and the waves grew high
S.O.S., now, can you help me?
I’m takin' water on just about as fast as I can
Could you lend me a hand?
S.O.S., now, can you help me?
I asked myself, how could anybody else understand
This wasn’t a part of my plan?
I do the best that I can
Mayday man
S.O.S., now, can you help me?
I’m takin' water on just about as fast as I can
Could you lend me a hand?
S.O.S., now, can you help me?
I asked myself, how could anybody else understand
This wasn’t a part of my plan?
I do the best that I can
Mayday man
Mayday man
Mayday man
Mayday man
