My Ship
(I'm down, I'm down, I'm down)
I don't have a dime and people don't wanna waste their time
On people who can't buy no time, and I'm down
(I'm down, I'm down, I'm down)
When my ship comes sailin' in, I'm gonna have me a prettier prince
I can start livin' again when that ship line comes sailin' in
(When my, when my, when my ship sails, sails in)
(When my, when my, when my ship sails, sails, sails in)
Dream, dream, oh how I dream, of my ship when it comes in
Won't, nobody help me? And I'm down
(I'm down, I'm down, I'm down)
People have your fun, while you have me on the run
'Cause when my ship comes sailin' in, I'll be the one having fun then
(They go, rain blows slow your ship)
Gonna stop my ship from comin' to me
Oh, man, my ship comin' home, I'm gonna be doin' my thing
Talkin' jive, spinnin' cash, ride my Broham
Hey, Jones, I'm gonna be blowin' your mind with the same jive you talkin' right now
Talkin' 'bout clean, woo, man
Wearing ninety dollar shoes, 300 dollar suit, man I'ma be doin' it and right number
Bad women, hey, don't come to me talkin' about, hey, tell me old man when my ship comes in"
'Cause I don't believe no thirsty mutt gonna come, I'ma tell you the same thing Jones
Ain't gonna be no more of that gimme, gimme, gimme
I'm gonna be standing my back and up and jiving and riding and riding and riding on and riding
I don't have a dime and people don't wanna waste their time
On people who can't buy no time, and I'm down
(I'm down, I'm down, I'm down)
When my ship comes sailin' in, I'm gonna have me a prettier prince
I can start livin' again when that ship line comes sailin' in
(When my, when my, when my ship sails, sails in)
(When my, when my, when my ship sails, sails, sails in)
Dream, dream, oh how I dream, of my ship when it comes in
Won't, nobody help me? And I'm down
(I'm down, I'm down, I'm down)
People have your fun, while you have me on the run
'Cause when my ship comes sailin' in, I'll be the one having fun then
(They go, rain blows slow your ship)
Gonna stop my ship from comin' to me
Oh, man, my ship comin' home, I'm gonna be doin' my thing
Talkin' jive, spinnin' cash, ride my Broham
Hey, Jones, I'm gonna be blowin' your mind with the same jive you talkin' right now
Talkin' 'bout clean, woo, man
Wearing ninety dollar shoes, 300 dollar suit, man I'ma be doin' it and right number
Bad women, hey, don't come to me talkin' about, hey, tell me old man when my ship comes in"
'Cause I don't believe no thirsty mutt gonna come, I'ma tell you the same thing Jones
Ain't gonna be no more of that gimme, gimme, gimme
I'm gonna be standing my back and up and jiving and riding and riding and riding on and riding
