Lyrics:
It was thirty days around the horn The captain says it's a thirty-five more The moon looks mean and the crew ain't staying There's gonna be some blood Is what they're all saying It's a shakedown cruise And I was just another tool There ain't no easy way out They're gonna shake you 'til you shout They treat you like a dog But you're only human You miss your home Lord, You miss that woman The captain laughs, he says, "You boys want some sex?" You can squeeze the sails, You can lick the decks" It was a shakedown cruise I guess I just was born to lose They tell you life is going cheap I got myself in pretty deep Starlight lost in the night Drift away and it feels all right Starlight alone in the night Drift away and it feels all right I guess it feels all right The fever's hot, The winds are blowin' cold The captain's crazy eye puts the fear in your soul I heard somebody cryin' "Lord let this end You know I'll never go to sea again" It was a shakedown cruise And now we're sendin' out the news There ain't no victory at sea Unless it's mutiny Now if I don't get off alive It's just as well I'll be waking up in heaven 'Cause I've been through hell On this shakedown cruise They call it a shakedown cruise Shakedown, shakedown cruise Shakedown, shake it up and move Shakedown, shakin' in my shoes
