Karaoké Taking Water Billy Strings

Cold, cold ashes on the ground

Nothin' lost and nothin' found

Friends and loved ones fallin' down

Can't you hear that mournful sound

Nothin' left but memories of things I still can't stand to see

There's an empty spot in me where my hometown used to be

This old boat is taking water

It won't be long 'till it goes down

Had enough to push us over

Time to turn the wheel around

Neighborhoods left to decay

People died or walked away

There's nowhere left for them to stay and we just look the other way

This old boat is taking water

Won't be long 'till it goes down

Had enough to push us over

Time to turn the wheel around

Waves keep poundin' through the night

Lost without a ray of light

Goin' down without a fight

Is there still time to make it right

This old boat is taking water

Won't be long 'till it goes down

Had enough to push us over

Time to turn the wheel around

This old boat is taking water

Won't be long 'till it goes down

Had enough to push us over

Time to turn the wheel around
