Never Been A Captain
I've never been a captain,
Always been a sailor,
And until the sea releases me, a sailor I will remain.
Well, you worry about your mama,
Worry about your baby,
And you dream about a love that only comes your way when you close your eyes at night.
They may come to you with diamonds,
They may come to you with roses,
And then they come to you with promises, but darlin' I promise only this:
It's a sad old world,
sad old world,
gotta to keep on trying,
that's all I know,
all I know,
If you're lucky enough to have her,
you hold that pearl,
hold that pearl,
If you're lucky enough to have her,
you hold that pearl,
hold that pearl.
Hold her.
Hold her.
We all come here as strangers,
(come here a strangers)
beggars at the table,
(beggars at the table)
but we leave here arm in arm, laughing at the morning light.
(oh)
(oh)
(oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

It's a sad old world,
sad old world,
gotta keep on trying,
that's all I know,
all I know
If you're lucky enough to have her,
you hold that pearl,
hold that pearl,
If you're lucky enough to have her,
you hold that pearl,
hold that pearl,
hold her (oh),
hold her (oh),
hold her (oh),
hold her (oh),
hold her (oh),
hold her (oh),
Hold it in you,
borrowed and blue,
And everything, everything,
comes to you.
