David Crosby - Wooden Ships lyrics



David Crosby: Vocal, Electric Guitar

Jeff Pevar: Lead ElectricGuitar

James 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Bass

Michael Finnigan: Organ, Harmony Vocals

Jody Cortez: Drums

Graham Nash: Acoustic Guitar, Harmony Vocals

Kipp Lennon: Harmony Vocals

One, two (Yeah) ... One, two, three ...

Intro. (Electric Guitars and Organ)

Nash: If you smile at me I will understand

'cause that is something

Everybody everywhere does in the same language, yeah

Crosby: I can see by your coat, my friend you're from the other side

There's just one thing I would like to know

Can you tell me please who won the war?

Nash: Say can I have some of your purple berries?

Crosby: Yes, I've been eating them

For six or seven weeks now I haven't got sick once

Crosby & Nash: Probably keep us all alivehere we go

Wooden ships on the water very free and easy

Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be

Silver people on the shoreline let us be

Talkin' very free and easy

Instrumental (Organ)

Horror grips us as we watch you die

All we can do is echo your anguished cries

Stare as all your human feelings die

We are leaving, you don't ...

Instrumental (Organ + Electric Guitar)

Go take your sister then by the hand

(Lead her) Lead her out of this foreign land

Far away where we might laugh again

We are leaving, you don't need us

You don't, you don't ...

Instrumental (Electric Guitar)

And it's a fair wind

Blowin' warm out of the south o'er my shoulder

I guess I am going to set a course

And you know we will surely, surely go

Ending (Electric Guitars and Organ)
