Turner Cody - The Days of Duke and Nancy

Don't Let Me Drown

If all Your creatures large and small
Were piled by the ocean wall
And all their fathers wandered by the bay
Every time Your ear touched down
You'd hear the lonesome whistle sound
And every note intoned in it would say
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
I was lost and I was found
I was tossed and I was bound
Don't let me drown
The ocean king he came to You
With hair of gray and eyes of blue
With three prongs on his crown
And on his stave
And as You turned away he stood
Upon a piece of shipwreck wood
And cried as You did ride upon a wave
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
I was lost and I was found
I was tossed and I was bound
Don't let me drown
The song of every bird and whale
From blue lagoon, typhoon, and gale
Sailing right into the fiery ring
You and he and she and I
In climates tropical and dry
From valley low to mountain high we sing
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
I was lost and I was found
I was tossed and I was bound
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
I was tossed and I was bound
I was lost and I was found
Don't let me drown
