Wooden Ships (Live)

If you're smilin' at me I will understand

'Cause that is something everybody

Everywhere does in the same language

I can see by your coat, my friend

You're from the other side

There's just one thing I got to know

Can you tell me please who won?

Say, can I have some of your purple berries?

Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now

Haven't got sick once,

Probably keep us both alive

Wooden ships on the water very free and easy

Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be

Silver people on the shoreline let us be

Talkin' 'bout very free and easy

Horror grips us as we watch you die

All we can do is echo your anguished cries

Stare as all human feelings die

We are leavin', you don't need us

Go, take a sister then by the hand

Lead her away from this foreign land

Far away where we might laugh again

We are leavin', you don't need us

And it's a fair wind, blowin' warm

Out of the south over my shoulder

Guess I'll set a course and go
