Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I wish I had an eyeglass
Polished brass and bone
To see beyond this ocean
Now I’m going on alone
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Verse 2]
The ropes you bound around me
They’re tighter than your fist
And when I come to cutting
They’ll be first upon on my list
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Verse 3]
I wish I was in Waterfall
Wading ankles deep
My tongue’s too dry to lick my wounds
And I got no tears to weep
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Verse 4]
Standing at my garden gate
Both feet on the ground
I’m heading down to Lovers’ Leap
Gonna watch that ship go down
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Verse 5]
Never left the midlands
Never saw the foam
But now I’ve lost that good old man
I’m miles away from home
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Verse 6]
I never felt them silken sheets
A-Licking on my skin
But now that captain’s going down
My ship’s coming in
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Chorus]
Oh the captain he is dead
Oh the captain he is dead
[Outro]
