I'm driftin' and driftin', like a ship out on the sea
I'm driftin' and driftin', like a ship out on the sea
Nobody seems to want me
Except the wide and open sea

My ship ain't got no captain, my ship ain't got no crew
My ship ain't got no captain, my ship ain't got no crew
Doin' that tide dare blow me and my past and future too

I look around for a savior to search me from the hungry sea
I look around for a savior to search me from the hungry sea
Maybe he's down at the bottom, waiting patiently for me
