My Images Come Lyrics

From the people who do the work

From the people who sing the songs

From the people who live the life

And the people who get along

A bottle of rum

For the demon that always lurk

For the demon that do me wrong

For the fury that is my wife

And the struggle what is my song

It gets me down sometimes

It gets me down but only

A little look around and I find

That I am not so lonely

We're in the same boat brother!

We're in the same boat brother

My images come

From the pleasure I had before

From the pleasure I'm still to know

From the pleasure my dreams provide

And the pleasure I can bestow

A bottle of rum

For the trouble what's at my door

For the trouble where'ere I go

The misfortunes I abide

And for the courage I am trying to show

It gets me down sometimes

It gets me down but only

A little look around and I find

That I am not so lonely

We're in the same boat brother!

We're in the same boat brother

My images come

From the woman that's on my knee

From the woman that's in my head

From the woman out in the sun

And the woman that shares my bed

A bottle of rum

For a broken love's misery

For a love that has grown so dead

For a love spent foolishly

And illusions that I've been fed

It gets me down sometimes

It gets me down but only

A little look around and I find

That I am not so lonely

We're in the same boat brother!

We're in the same boat brother

My images come

From the world in which I live

From the world I love so well

From the world of change and light

And the Lord of which I tell

A bottle of rum

For the feelings I cannot give

For the feelings my fears impell

For the screams of a fraught-filled night

And the time that is spent in hell

It gets me down sometimes

It gets me down but only

A little look around and I find

That I am not so lonely

We're in the same boat brother!

We're in the same boat brother
