The evening that she rising
No she's risen oh so high
The waves the bodies blow
In the new day sky
Oh tell me why them (Why them), oh mama why me
I'ma fighting and I'm dying right here (Help)
Got all the help up on my ear (Oh mama)
And I came to thinking die way over there
Why them, oh mama why me
Oh
There's a waves she is a coming
And she's raging in the sea
From the shores of eve at night
Do not open clear, oh tell me
Why them (Why them), oh mama why me
I'ma hurting and I'm dying right here (Help)
With all the help upon my ear (Oh mama)
And I came to thinking
I'ma way up over there
Oh
Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo
Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo
Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo
There's a ship she is a comin'
And your whole world turns to sea
And you stand on the shores and ask
Is she coming for you or me?
And the long time silent voices will finally climb
Why, why them
(Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo)
Why them, oh mama why me
(Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo)
Why them
(Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo)
Oh mama why me
(Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo)
Why them
(Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo)
Oh mama why me
(Sha do shoobe doo oh shoobe doo)
