Lost at Sea
Johnny took an oath just the other day
He's got a couple of kids and some bills to pay
He's gonna join the navy, see the world
Serve a couple years and find some work
Johnny didn't know it but he's joining a fight
Along with the sailors to the left and right
He's gonna man the deck, it'll take a toll
Watching for torpedoes coming at the hull
Standing the watch all night long
Workin' like a dog tryna make it home
Spirits up but no end in sight
Praying to the Lord let me make it through the night
But the Lord had him another plan
Cause the ship was sinking and there ain't no land
Johnny's lost at sea, ain't no way back home
Old glory's going under, he can't buy no time
He's got the bills to pay, and the kids to feed,
And the big blue sea loves company
But Johnny don't wanna be
Lost at sea
The ship had gone under
And the crew astray
They were treading in the water
Tryna make it another day
Johnny wished to say goodbye
But he knew his fate
Then the ocean pulled him under
And it was all too late
Cause the Lord had him another plan
When the ship was sinking and there ain't no land
Johnny's lost at sea
Ain't no way back home
Old glory's going under, he can't buy no time
He's got the bills to pay, and the kids to feed,
And the big blue sea loves company
And Johnny don't wanna be
Lost at sea
He's got a couple of kids and some bills to pay
He's gonna join the navy, see the world
Serve a couple years and find some work
Johnny didn't know it but he's joining a fight
Along with the sailors to the left and right
He's gonna man the deck, it'll take a toll
Watching for torpedoes coming at the hull
Standing the watch all night long
Workin' like a dog tryna make it home
Spirits up but no end in sight
Praying to the Lord let me make it through the night
But the Lord had him another plan
Cause the ship was sinking and there ain't no land
Johnny's lost at sea, ain't no way back home
Old glory's going under, he can't buy no time
He's got the bills to pay, and the kids to feed,
And the big blue sea loves company
But Johnny don't wanna be
Lost at sea
The ship had gone under
And the crew astray
They were treading in the water
Tryna make it another day
Johnny wished to say goodbye
But he knew his fate
Then the ocean pulled him under
And it was all too late
Cause the Lord had him another plan
When the ship was sinking and there ain't no land
Johnny's lost at sea
Ain't no way back home
Old glory's going under, he can't buy no time
He's got the bills to pay, and the kids to feed,
And the big blue sea loves company
And Johnny don't wanna be
Lost at sea
