Little Brother - Nothing Short of Thankful Lyrics
Little Brother - Nothing Short of Thankful Lyrics
Hey man!
Yes?
I'm packed and ready to set sail
Well I
Guess
I gotta lot of friends to make!
Who is this
Fool?
Hard to say exactly what he is
Guess we've been cursed
Blessed!
Sure as hell it don't feel that way
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'm walkin' a different highway
Nothin' gonna change my mind
You're travelin' a different line
Oh, nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find what I need if you let me
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find mine
Shipmates!
Yes?
Raise the sails and haul the anchor up
Please try to accept apologies for the lateness that I've caused
Can you stand
Still? I'm nothing short of grateful for my trip
God help me
I'm nothing short of thankful
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'm walkin' a different highway
Nothin' gonna change my mind
You're travelin' a different line
Oh, nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find what I need if you let me
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find mine
Found you
What the hell are you doing here?!
You get your ass over here and off this boat right now!
You followed me here?!
Tracked you every step of the way. Now come on! We're going home!
You got no business chasing me down like a hunted rabbit
Then stop running like one
I'm not going home. I'm going to sea
Don't normally get such high drama leaving port
You stay out of it!
Nothin' gonna change my mind
You're walkin' a different highway
Nothin' gonna change my mind
You're travelin' a different line
Oh, nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find what I need if I want it
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find mine
Gang's aweigh!
No!
Boss man said work your way
Put it off for another day
I'm not listening tomorrow may not come
Lazy men find an easy way
Easy work for easy pay
I'm not listening there ain't no such a thing as that
Stop! Turn this ship around!
Son, this is a 300-ton vessel just left its berth for the open sea. You can't just turn it around like Aunt Polly's carriage off to Sunday school. Captain! We have a new crew member, sir
Show me your papers
Got no papers, sir. Another farmer boy
Another goddamn useless gangly hayseed son of a bitch?! All right, put him to work
You heard the Captain. Like it or not, you're both whalers now. Hope you enjoy our little scenic cruise through the romantic South Seas
Sir, sir, please listen to me. I want to go with you. All I wanna do is see the world and have a proper adventure. But he's got nothing to do with this!
He does now. I do wonder if you have any idea what you signed up for
I didn't sign up for nothin'! This is pure piracy!
Well, I'm ready for it. Far as I'm concerned anything's got to beat the ass end of a plow mule, right?
Hey, I'll tell you what, you ask me that again when we've been at sea for three months without land in sight and you're covered with whale blood and there's no food but hardtack and sour water you can't keep down and you haven't had a proper shit in a week and your hands are bleeding from the ropes and your face is crusted with salt so your eyes sting which means you can't sleep and the waves are pounding and the ship is rolling and bucking like a two-bit dockside sportin' lady and you like to slit your own throat to get one blessed minute of goddamn peace
Hell, man, you ever seen the ass end of a plow mule?
One, two
One, two, three, four!
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'm walkin' a different highway
Nothin' gonna change my mind
I'm travelin' a different line
Oh, nothin' gonna change my mind
I'll find what I need if I want it
Nothin' gonna change my mind

Hey!

Oh
Oh
Sweet Lord, I did not bargain for this!
We been through worse, big brother. Blizzard of '82 for one. You recall that pestilence
At least we were home
Not again
We belong at home
Then you should have goddamn stayed there! I never asked you to come rooting after me!
You think I wanted to step away planting time to come save your threadbare ass?!
That's you all over plowing, reaping, sowing. Damn, look past the hedgerows, brother
Still don't quite comprehend how you two ended up here. You don't seem, shall we say, natural mariners
I left home, you follow? Couldn't stand one more day on that damn farm doing the same hard thing every hard day. There's got to be more in this life I reckon. Anything, everything, let it hit me, let it pummel me to my knees just let me live!
