Joan Baez - Told My Captain Lyrics
Official




Told my captain my hands were cold
God damn your hands, boy
Let the wheelin' roll! Told my captain
My feet were cold god damn your feet, boy
Let the wheelin' roll! Captain, captain
You must be blin' look at your watch
It's past quittin' time captain, captain
How can it be whistle done blow
You still workin' me? Asked my captain
To give me my time dam' old captain
Wouldn't pay me no mind if I'd-a had my
Weight in lime would've whupped that captain
Till he went stone blind raised my hand
To wipe the sweat from my head
Damned old captain shot my buddy dead
If you don't believe that my buddy's dead
Just look at the hole in my buddy's head
Captain walkin' up and down
Buddy's lyin' on the burning ground
Buzzards circling 'round the sky
Buzzards sure know captain's gonna die
