lyrics

It was a sad, sad day when the dealer passed away,
Running low on gear and the customs got a stash on the docks,
Life on the rocks.
It was a cold ,cold night and the clipper wouldn’t light,
Drinking fortified wine trying not to lose your mind it’s all right.

How many times have you been told?
So many times that it’s getting old.
I bet your parents wouldn’t like to know what you’ve become.
It was many years ago you were twenty-two years bold,
You had your wicked way, she was such a lay, you were told:
She’s only fifteen years old.
It was a cold ,cold night and the clipper wouldn’t light,
Drinking fortified wine trying not to lose your mind it’s all right.

Life is on the rocks.
