Send a boat

Send a boat - Chris Knight

Pictures on the wall bottle in her hand

Children never call she misses her old man

Rain on the window quite as a tear

And if you never felt 'em never know they're here

Someone's cryin' in the hall

Good lord help us all

While we try to stay afloat

If you would lord send a boat

Holes in the wall bottle by his bed

Holes in his past empty as his head

He's younger when he dreams he's older than his years

And if he never wakes up he'll know why he's here

Someone's cryin' in the hall

Good lord help us all

While we try to stay afloat

If you would lord send a boat

The writing's on the wall there's a bruise on his

Face

Daddy's come and go momma's on a date

He's just cold and hungry playin' ain't no fun

And if he ever grows up he'll get him a gun

Someone's cryin' in the hall

Good lord help us all

While we try to stay afloat

If you would lord send a boat

If you would lord send a boat
