Water Black Lyrics by Dave McArtney

Hook

2004

Lying in the gutter
Go to sea boy get to sea man
Long wind jammers
Sailing on the ocean
Some don't come back to get their bags
Some don't come back to get their bags
My luck in the gutter black
I'm sending you off on a mission
If you accept it my child
You're running back into the blissful ocean
No sooner are you born my child
You can choose the Firth of Thames
The Seine or the mighty Limpopo
You in my brain you in my heart
I'm running back with you in my brain
Now there's more baggage and seriousness
Hey stop !
What is the meaning of this ?
I'm running back into thе ocean in still life
In the ocеan still life
In the ocean still life
Ah, I'm running back to you babe
Secrets I knew then
Making sense now
The legends of the flood
The drainpipe of success
My luck in the gutter black
I guess I'm running back
