| Every day about sunset
|
| There comes the king of roulette
|
| He’ll cash his great big stacks
|
| Every time that he bets
|
| But last night feeling extra fine
|
| He put the whole mess down on red
|
| It came up double-zero
|
| His luck has just run dead
|
| Ain’t no sea can’t be crossed
|
| Ain’t no ship that can’t be lost
|
| Ain’t no horse that can’t be rode
|
| Ain’t a man that can’t be thrown
|
| Well, Elvin said to Melvin
|
| «you never gonna get that girl
|
| She’s too high class; |
| she’s beautiful;
|
| She’s a woman of the world,»
|
| Then Melvin learned to dance
|
| And that gal she gave him a wink
|
| Then Melvin turned to Elvin
|
| He said: «i tell you this is what i think:»
|
| There’s no sea can’t be crossed
|
| Ain’t no ship that can’t be lost
|
| Ain’t no horse that can’t be rode
|
| Ain’t no man that can’t be thrown
|
| Oohh
|
| Ohh
|
| Ohh
|
| Oooh…
|
| I’ll tell you all about Brenda
|
| That girl, she could really paint
|
| But all the critics told her
|
| «where it is, you ain’t»
|
| She heard her work to the people
|
| And it was like they couldn’t even see 'em
|
| But things can change and you know one day
|
| They’ll be in a big museum
|
| There’s no sea can’t be crossed
|
| Ain’t no ship that can’t be lost
|
| Ain’t no horse that can’t be rode
|
| Ain’t no man that can’t be thrown
|
| You know a man can’t live on bread alone
|
| He’s gotta have something to spin it on
|
| I heard about a group with too much cash
|
| They came up with something really rash
|
| They had the money; |
| they had the power
|
| To build themselves a great big tower
|
| You know, they never got to heaven
|
| You know something, it went wrong
|
| But check it out you can still hear em
|
| Hear em babble on
|
| Babble on
|
| Babble babble babble
|
| ON
|
| There’s no sea can’t be crossed
|
| Ain’t no ship that can’t be lost
|
| Ain’t no horse that can’t be rode
|
| Ain’t no man that can’t be thrown |
