Shakedown Cruise |
It was thirty days around the horn |
The captain says it’s a thirty-five more |
The moon looks mean and the crew ain’t staying |
«There's gonna be some blood» is what they’re all saying |
It’s a shakedown cruise (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
And I was just another fool (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
There ain’t no easy way out (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
They’re gonna shake you 'til you shout, hey, hey (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
They treat you like a dog, but you’re only human |
You miss your home, Lord, you miss that woman |
The captain laughs, he says, «You boys want some sex? |
You can squeeze the sails, you can lick the decks» |
It was a shakedown cruise (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
I guess I just was born to lose (Shakedown, shakin' out the blues) |
They tell you life is going cheap (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
I got myself in pretty deep (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
(Starlight lost in the night) |
(Drift away and it feels all right) And it feels all right |
(Starlight alone in the night) |
(Drift away and it feels all right) And it feels all right |
I guess it feels all right |
The fever’s hot, the winds are blowin' cold |
The captain’s crazy eye puts the fear in your soul |
I heard somebody cryin', «Lord, let this end |
You know I’ll never go to sea again» |
It was a shakedown cruise (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
And now we’re sendin' out the news (Shakedown, shakin' out the blues) |
There ain’t no victory at sea (Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
Unless it’s mutiny (Shakedown, shakin' in my shoes) |
Now if I don’t get off alive, it’s just as well |
I’ll be waking up in heaven, 'cause I’ve been through hell |
On this shakedown cruise |
They call it a shakedown cruise |
Aw, shake me down, boy |
(Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
(Shakedown, shakin' out the blues) |
It was a shakedown cruise |
(Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
It got me shakin' in my shoes |
(Shakedown, shakin' in my shoes) |
And now I’m feelin' kinda blue |
(Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
Whoo! |
(Shakedown, shakin' out the blues) |
Shakedown cruise |
(Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
I said, shake me down, boys |
(Shakedown, shakin' in my shoes) |
Whoo! |
(Shakedown, shakedown cruise) |
