Well hes a big star now
But Ive been a fan of his for years
The way he sings and plays guitar
Still brings me to tears
I wouldnt want to be a big deal
I wouldnt want to be a celebrity
I spend my life building ships of steel
Thats all there ever was for me
Take a hammer to the sea belles
And shout my name
And Ill sail the seas as free as a breeze
Thats my claim to fame
He spends his life in the studio
Jet planes and big black cars
Plays records on the radio
In all of the clubs and in all of the bars
By day he didnt have a choice
You had to take a trade
You had no money and you had no voice
Thats the life I made
Take a hammer to the sea belles
And shout my name
And Ill sail the seas as free as a breeze
Thats my claim to fame
Thats my claim to fame boys
Thats my claim to fame
To sail the seas as free as a breeze
Thats my claim to fame
Well a song can live forever and a day
An old ship goes to the breakers yard
In a hundred years youre gonna hear him play
They wont remember me for working hard
Now theyve all gone away, all the boys and the girls
They yard is a grave where the river runs through
We used to build the ships for the whole wide world
Now we couldnt do it if we wanted to
Take a hammer to the sea belles
And shout my name
Ill sail the seas as free as a breeze
Thats my claim to fame
Take a hammer to the sea belles
And shout my name
Ill sail the seas as free as a breeze
Thats my claim to fame
Thats my claim to fame boys
Thats my claim to fame
To sail the seas as free as a breeze
Thats my claim to fame Send these lyrics to a friend: |
