My Ship

My, my, my, my ship is coming in
And you're the only thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from the bow
No how

Well, I got myself a steady job
And I'm earning everybody's respect
Moving up (Higher up)
There's a future that I got to protect
I've been saving every penny I can (That I can)
And I'm working on a promising plan (Yes I am, yes I am)
But it won't be complete
'Til I'm reaching for your feminine hand
I keep on trying to tell you, girl

My, my, my, my ship is coming in
And you're the only thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from the bow
No how

I got everything I need but you
What's a man in my position to do?
Got a home that was built
And designed for occupation by two
Brand new
I can listen to my stereo (Play it loud)
I can drive my car where I wanna go (Anywhere, anywhere)
But material things can't be bought
If you got money to blow
But money don't buy devotion

My, my, my, my ship is coming in
And you're the only thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from the bow
No how
No how

I'm getting much closer to you (Getting much closer)
But then I want to go (Can't you see I'm changing?)
But all this fine and sweet (Baby, without you)
Is only making me sad and lonely
So sad, so sad, so sad and lonely

My, my, my, my ship, my ship is coming in
And you're the only thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from the bow
No how
My, my, my, my ship is coming in
And you're the only thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from the bow
No how
