Lyrics

Like ships in a squall, we rise and we fall
We're plotting our course through the waves
Some masts are tall with sails so strong
Others are tossed in the gale
We try to stay dry with salt in our eyes
No moment to rest or complain
The moon isn't far, a clear sky and stars
Red sky at morn on your tail
I'm not gonna stand on the end of the pier
I'm not gonna let you go down with the ship
Raise up your anchor, it's time to set sail
And I'm not gonna let you go down
Like ships, we were made to dance o'er our graves
One false move and we could be thrown
Buried alive before our due time
To rest at sixty below
So jibe while you can if there's danger ahead
Oh, stay on your course if you will
I'll throw you a line if waves start to rise
And bail as your ship starts to fill
I'm not gonna stand on the end of the pier
I'm not gonna let you go down with the ship
Raise up your anchor, it's time to set sail
And I'm not gonna let you go down
Oh, I'm not gonna stand on the end of the pier
I'm not gonna let you go down with the ship
Raise up your anchor, it's time to set sail
And I'm not gonna let you go
Not gonna let you go down
Not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you go
Not gonna let you go down
