mia kelly - bonefish boys كلمات أغنية

tell ya ‘bout the time i served
started 1954
the tvs started spilling colour
a couple months before

juvenile, i wasn’t fourteen
when they sent me out to sea
to join the ranks of salty dogs
with my tail between my knees

oh, the ships we sailed
were made of wood still
and the men on them were made of steel
oh the hardest men still get hungry
bonefish boys behind the wheel

our boots were ever_soaking
our tongues were never dry
we’re praying to the bottle
and the green flash in the sky

oh, the weather got the better of my face
cut me so deep
and in the trenches of my skin
the bitter begs to feed
oh, the ships we sailed
were made of wood still
and the men on them were made of steel
oh, the hardest men still get hungry
oh us bonefish boys behind the wheel

after thirteen years of sea legs
well, the bad luck followed suit
the sallow, sullen shadow
of the boy they did recruit
and back on royal ground
counterculture fed cocaine
i spent 30 years, then twenty more
with lucy on my brain

the ships we sailed
were made of wood still
and the men on them were made of steel
oh, the hardest men still get hungry
oh, us bonefish boys behind the wheel
