Sink or Swim
X-ray man scanning my body
Yankee boy looking for war
Charlie's coming out as a commie
Echo shakes me to the core
It's time for a lesson
Push me to the shore
It could do us good now
To learn a little more
We can sink or swim
When I ask for breath I receive it now
We can sink or swim
If I close my eyes I can see the south
We can sink or swim
If your courage runs let me take you down
India's making a baby
In a hotel room two blocks away
Uniforms coming to take me
Doctor, doctor, I can explain
It's time for a lesson
In the lighthouse on the pier
It could do us good now
To get out of here
We can sink or swim
When I ask for breath I receive it now
We can sink or swim
If I close my eyes I can see the south
We can sink or swim
If your courage runs let me take you down
It's time for a lesson
Take me to the shore
It could do us good now
To love a little more
We can sink or swim
When I ask for breath I receive it now
We can sink or swim
If I close my eyes I can see the south
We can sink or swim
You're slowly sinking, I'm gonna lift you out
We can sink or swim
Yankee boy looking for war
Charlie's coming out as a commie
Echo shakes me to the core
It's time for a lesson
Push me to the shore
It could do us good now
To learn a little more
We can sink or swim
When I ask for breath I receive it now
We can sink or swim
If I close my eyes I can see the south
We can sink or swim
If your courage runs let me take you down
India's making a baby
In a hotel room two blocks away
Uniforms coming to take me
Doctor, doctor, I can explain
It's time for a lesson
In the lighthouse on the pier
It could do us good now
To get out of here
We can sink or swim
When I ask for breath I receive it now
We can sink or swim
If I close my eyes I can see the south
We can sink or swim
If your courage runs let me take you down
It's time for a lesson
Take me to the shore
It could do us good now
To love a little more
We can sink or swim
When I ask for breath I receive it now
We can sink or swim
If I close my eyes I can see the south
We can sink or swim
You're slowly sinking, I'm gonna lift you out
We can sink or swim
