Oh, Lord, I have travelled and oh, I have roamed
And my shoes are all worn out and my clothes are all torn
And its hard to remember the places I've been
And there's no way of counting all of my friends
Now I'm down by the ocean, down by the bay,
Don't try to drag me away.
Down by the ocean, down by the shore,
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar.
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar.
I've travelled the prairies, the lone western towns,
Spent long lonesome mornings in big factory towns,
Chuckled at quarrels over two spoken tougues,
Lived wildly and freely when life it was young.
Now I'm down by the ocean, down by the bay,
Don't try to drag me away.
Down by the ocean, down by the shore,
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar.
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar.
Some day when I'm crazy and my eyes they just stare,
I might find my body a long way from here,
Well, just burn me and throw me in a river thats long
And let me flow to the ocean to the words of this song.
Now I'm down by the ocean, down by the bay,
Don't try to drag me away.
Down by the ocean, down by the shore,
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar.
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar
Let me sleep tp the sound of its roar.
