Brown Bird - Bilgewater

Lyrics:

It don’t matter if the cold wind blows I’m gonna wind up working in the thick of it Sunshine through the rain and snow There’s an oily brine bilge water baptism waiting below

That’s just the waves slamming against the topsides’ sound Don’t let the ever rolling motion go and get you down Don’t let it shake your steady thread cutting hand Keep stealing ribbons from the steel and giving hell To every halyard you can

In spite of all the wherewithal To fight it all I will face it all In spite of all the wherewithal To fight it all I’ll embrace it all

When everyday’s like a war between the will to go on And a wish that the world would spiral into the sun Turn your head toward the storm that’s surely coming along

If the sun was always shining and our load always light We’d be shaking like a leaf with every God given night And we’d break under the weight of any pressure That was ever applied

Will you be ready when the straw boss calls? He’s got an ever loving bone to pick with one and all Don’t let his condescension get you down Just have the strength to know you’re wrong And when you’re right the strength to stand your ground In spite of all the wherewithal To fight it all I will face it all In spite of all the wherewithal To fight it all I’ll embrace it all

When everyday is like a war You find no strength from your usual source There’s no peace, there’s no rest Your fortitude is feeling put to the test When everyday is like a war between the will to go on And a wish that the world would spiral into the sun Turn your head toward the storm that’s surely coming along

If the sun was always shining and our load always light We’d be shaking like a leaf with every God given night And we’d break under the weight Of any pain that ever came in this life
