Leroy Carr - Lifeboat Blues Lyrics

Lyrics Lifeboat Blues - Leroy Carr



We was on a lifeboat in the middle of the sea
We was on a lifeboat in the middle of the sea
I began to wonder what would become of me
The storm was risin', and the wind began to blow
The storm was risin', and the wind began to blow
The boat was sinkin' and we had no place to go
The captain hollered "let the lifeboat down"
The captain hollered "let the lifeboat down"
"This boat is sinking and we will surely drown"
I put my baby in a lifeboat and kissed her bye, bye, bye
I put my baby in a lifeboat and kissed her bye, bye, bye
I hate to leave her and I stood on the deck and I cried
Early the next morning another boat it came along
Early the next morning another boat it came along
When I woke up I was in my baby's arms
