Everybody, listen to me
And return me my ship
I^Òm your captain, I^Òm your captain
Though I^Òm feeling mighty sick
I^Òve been lost now, days uncounted
And it^Òs months since I^Òve seen home
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Poor am I, all alone
If you return me to my home port
I will kiss you mother earth
Take me back now, take me back now
To the port of my birth
Am I in my cabin dreaming
Or are you really scheming
To take my ship away from me?
You better think about it
I just can^Òt live without it
So please don^Òt take my ship from me

I can feel the hand of a stranger
And it^Òs tied me around my throat
Heaven help me, heaven help me
Take this stranger off my boat
I^Òm your captain, I^Òm your captain
Though I^Òm feeling mighty sick
Everybody, listen to me
And return me me ship
I^Òm your captain, yeah, yeah yeah
