Lyrics

Lost At Sea

My old man was a sailor
That's what Mama she tells me
Me I never met him
One day lost at sea

On the mantle there's a picture
Of a sailor and his bride
Taken manny years ago
When mom was still a child

Not sure how it happenend
Or how it came to be
Momma said he just left one day
And was forever lost at sea
Lost at sea
Lost at sea

Now momma works the lunch shift
Down at the naval yard
And I was raised in the shadow of these ships and crains
And all night sailor bars

Sometimes I just lie awake
And listen to the sound
Of the big ships heading out to sea
And wonder where there bound

Then I hear the sound of momma
Fumbling with her keys
And I know that Poppa's
Not the only one forever lost at sea
Lost at sea
Lost at sea

Now Momma she don't smile
Momma she don't cry
Momma she just carries on
She'll do it till she does

But there's one thing that I'm sure of
Know matter what becomes of me
I know I'll never let my heart be one day
Lost at sea,
Lost at sea
