Poor Michaels Boat Lyrics

Poor Michael's boat is taking in water
That won't surprise some of you
He set offf with so many big plans, ain't it funny how they fall through?

Just you take a walk down by little judge
See the red face in the sun
Know that when you walk in his name
There goes you, everyone, grace of god

Still I trust in one moment there with you
Knowing that's a chance I will take
How soon
I still gotta wait in poor Michael's boat

So I will, for my love, a dress made of linen
With diamonds and spades
Say for me how little time is left you
Away from the shore

The devil may care for the hurt, my brother
For my sister the same
Set your course for the place you lost
Turned out bad you need

Still I trust in one moment there with you
Knowing that's a chance I will take
How soon
I still gotta wait in poor Michael's boat

Oh, still I trust in one moment there with you
Knowing that's a chance I will take
How soon
I still gotta wait in poor Michael's boat
