Rock The Boat

by Hans Theessink recording of 1992 resp. 1993 from Call Me (Deluge DEL-D-3006) & Hans Theessink & Blue Groove - LIVE (Minor 744125) Came a long way to your country Now you point your gun at me Got no money, got no papers I'm as scared as I can be Don't know where I'm going But I know I can't go back to where I've been Now you tell me that the boat is full And there ain't no room for me Rock the boat, don't let me down Rock the boat, don't let me down Hard times in my homeland Trouble in my town Seen oppression, I've seen torture Seen the blood upon the ground Had to run for my life To escape from captivity Now you tell me that the boat is full And there ain't no room for me Rock the boat, don't let me down Rock the boat, don't let me down Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Created by: Bluesman Harry Page last updated on: June 2 2000

 

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
