grand funk
1970
Everybody listen to me And return me my ship I'm your captain I'm your captain Though I'm feeling mighty sick I've been lost now for days uncounted And it's months since I've seen home Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Or am I all alone? If you return me to my home port I will kiss you Mother Earth Take me back now Take me back now To the port of my birth Am I in my cabin dreaming? Or are you really scheming To take my ship away from me? You'd better think about it I just can't live without it So please don't take my ship from me I can feel the hand of a stranger And it's tightening around my throat Heaven help me Heaven help me Take this stranger from my boat I'm your captain I'm your captain Though I'm feeling mighty sick Everybody listen to me And return me my ship I'm your captain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm your captain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm your captain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm your captain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...I'm getting closer to my home I'm getting closer to my home I'm getting closer to my home.
