Lyrics
When the ship comes in, won't have to worry about money. And whatever it is I need, I'm gonna have plenty.
When the ship comes in, I'll get together the band. Gonna fly 'em all in. Let the party begin.
When the ship comes in, I'm gonna go a lot of places. And If I get in the game, you know I'll be holding aces.
When the ship comes in, I'm gonna see a few sights. Experience the magic of the European nights.
Somehow they picked my number to win, though I never bought the magazine, or maybe I'll slip on a bananna peel, and my lawyer'll turn it to a million dollar deal.
A distant relative you never knew, died and left a fortune for you. Or maybe you'll hit the lottery, or tear into Vegas on a lucky lucky streak.
When the ship comes in, in the Winter I won't freeze. I'll be down sailing through the Florida keys.
When the ship comes in, won't have to watch every penny. Still I hope I don't forget the folks to don't have any.
Alright, alright, alright!
