deep blue sea

chorus

I'd been floating a long long time

looked around for a friend of mine

all I saw was the crashing waves and the lonely slaves

had enough so I jumped ship

salt water stung like that old whip

who I wondered truly saves the lonely brave

I went down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down

then a hand caught me

chorus

from the deep blue sea, the Lord rescued me

overboard I heard the peg leg cry - threw me a rope as he yelled oh my

we got a lost soul there splashing around lets get him on board where he'll be bound

I saw the ship of fools float by I was over and under but I didn't even try

cause I was saved by the Lords good love as he grabbed my hand and pulled me above

(Peg said you'll go down!)

I went down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down

break

chorus out

from the deep blue sea, the Lord rescued me
