Once I was lost

Out on the gloomy sea

Once I was lost

Out on that gloomy sea

And I began to wonder

What would become a-me?



The thunder was rolling

The rain begin to fall

The thunder was rolling

The rain begin to fall

I thought to myself

I wouldn't see home, anymo'



I left my home

When I was only five years old

I left my home

When I was only five years old

And if I ever get back

I'll never leave home anymo'



I was so lonely

I could not control myself

I was so lonely

I could not control myself

I couldn't hear from my baby

Couldn't hear from nobody else



I walked so far

I've gived down in my knees

I walked so far

I've gived down in my knees 

Mister, will you let me ride

In your machine, if you please?
