Roger Creager - My Ship Goes Down lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

Music on Titanic played right up to the end

When you're down to nothin, a song can be a friend

Nothin to lose, nothin to hide

You play it best when it's your very last ride

CHORUS

It ain't the money, it ain't the glory

It ain't the jet-set way I run around

I got my heart and soul mixed in the fever

I'll play music while my ship goes down, Hey!

Verse 2

Baby's had enough, says she's walkin' out

There's the inspiration, the songs I sing about

I'm gonna lose it, and I'm gonna die

It'll all end with my heart on the line

(CHORUS)

Lookin' at me from the outside you might think I've got it made

But anyone can see I'm goin' down, down down.

Verse 3

Old and tired and madder than hell

I ain't goin' back to that county jail

Back on the road where I belong

Sometimes I wonder what the hell I'm doin' wrong

(CHORUS)

I'll play music while my ship goes down

I'll play my music while my ship goes down
