Shiver Me Timbers

from Barnacles Of Time by The Wandering Mariners

/

lyrics

Shiver me timbers

Shiver me timbers, head to my toes
Gale from the north wind, howls and blows
Screeching and moaning, rotting wood planks
Vessel capsizing, sinking our ranks

Shiver me timbers, rattle me bones
Sliver me fingers, crack all me toes
Thundering clouds, torrential downpours
Mountains of waves, drove us too close to shore

Shiver me timbers, I barely survived
Opened my eyes, just as we nosedived
Into the rocks, peaking through waves
Shipmates went jumping and so did the slaves

Drifting alone on a cracked piece of wood
Gasping for air I rose up and stood
Awaiting my fate and awaiting my doom
My body is cold under the light of the moon

Dreaming of dying, dreams of the end
Dreaming of drowning along with my friends
Dreaming its over, the rolling of seas
Dreaming of clover and fields of green
