Soul Survivor
When the water is rough,
the sailing is tough
I'll get drowned in your love.
You've got a cut-throat crew,
I'm gonna sink under you
I got the bell bottom blues,
It's gonna be the death of me.
It's the graveyard watch,
running right on the rocks,
I've taken all the knocks.
You ain't giving me no quarter,
I'd rather drink sea water,
I wish I'd never had brought you,
It's gonna be the death of me.
Soul survivor, soul survivor
Soul survivor, soul survivor
Gonna be the death of me,
It's gonna be the death of me.
When you're flying your flags,
all my confidence sags.
You got me packing my bags.
I'll stowaway at sea,
You make me mutiny,
Where you are I won't be,
You're gonna be the death of me.
(Jagger/Richards)
