The Jayhawks Poor Michaels Boat song lyrics

Poor Michael's boat is taking in water

That won't surprise some of you

He set offf with so many big plans, ain't it funny how they fall through?

Just you take a walk down by little judge

See the red face in the sun

Know that when you walk in his name

There goes you, everyone, grace of god

Still I trust in one moment there with you

Knowing that's a chance I will take

How soon

I still gotta wait in poor Michael's boat

So I will, for my love, a dress made of linen

With diamonds and spades

Say for me how little time is left you

Away from the shore

The devil may care for the hurt, my brother

For my sister the same

Set your course for the place you lost

Turned out bad you need

Still I trust in one moment there with you

Knowing that's a chance I will take

How soon

I still gotta wait in poor Michael's boat

Oh, still I trust in one moment there with you

Knowing that's a chance I will take

How soon

I still gotta wait in poor Michael's boat
