Woke up early on the day that I died
Tried to sleep in, and lord know I tried
Got these dead bum vagabond blues
Saint Peter I need a minute to tie my shoes
My ship is sinking, I have no prayers or pleas
Just a sailor lost out to seas
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Inside the void there were no pearly gates
Just some souls served to god on a plate
Midnight scenes, purple hell, and voices
Scrapes and scabs and a list of bad choices
My ship is sinking, I have no prayers or pleas
Just a sailor lost out to seas
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Woke up early on the day that I died
Tried to sleep in, and lord know I tried
Got these dead bum vagabond blues
Saint Peter I need a minute to tie my shoes
My ship is sinking, I have no prayers or pleas
Just a sailor lost out to seas
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
