Текст песни Tom Waits - Shiver Me Timbers

Shiver Me Timbers by Tom Waits

I'm leaving my family leaving all my friends
My body's at home but my hearts in the wind
Where the clouds are like headlines on a new front page sky
My tears are salt water and the moons full and high

And I know Martin Eden's gonna be proud of me
Many before me have been drawn by the sea
To be up in the crow's nest singing my say
Shiver me Timbers as I'm sailing away

 Now the fog's lifting and the sand's shifting
 I'm drifting on out
 Old captain Ahab he ain't got nothing on me
 So swallow me , follow me
 I'm travelling alone
 Blue waters my daughter I'm gonna skip like a stone

So please call my misses tell her not to cry
Cause my goodbye is written by the moon in the sky
Nobody knows me I can't fathom my stayin'
Shiver me timbers as I'm sailing away

(CHORUS)

I'm leaving my family leaving all my friends
My body's at home but my hearts in the wind
Where the clouds are like headlines on a new front page sky
Shiver me timbers as I'm sailing away
