Flatt And Scruggs - Take Me In Your Lifeboat Lyrics

Take me in your lifeboat, oh

Take me in your lifeboat

It will stand the raging storm

Take me in your lifeboat, oh

Take me in your lifeboat

It will bear my spirit home.



Now come brothers and sisters and don't fall asleep

We'll pray night and day or we'll sink in the deep

Fathers and mothers are prayin' so well

The Lord won't you take me in your lifeboat.



The clouds are so heavy the winds are so loud

The thunder are rollin' and burstin' the clouds

They pray to their sinner mates for what they have done

They took the dyin' sinner in their lifeboat.
