Sea Song
All the souls that float in the sea
before they came as men without kings
they sailed so long forgetting their wives
they only sung with rum as their bribe
All the souls that float in the sea
once they were some men without dreams
they pushed the waves and made the gulls scream
they drank their scotch and whiskey alone
All the souls that float in the sea
before they drowned these men could have redeem
they thought they were the prince of all thieves
but their best riches are lost deep inside me
