Once I was lost
Out on the gloomy sea
Once I was lost
Out on that gloomy sea
And I began to wonder
What would become a-me?

The thunder was rolling
The rain begin to fall
The thunder was rolling
The rain begin to fall
I thought to myself
I wouldn't see home, anymo'

I left my home
When I was only five years old
I left my home
When I was only five years old
And if I ever get back
I'll never leave home anymo'

I was so lonely
I could not control myself
I was so lonely
I could not control myself
I couldn't hear from my baby
Couldn't hear from nobody else

I walked so far
I've gived down in my knees
I walked so far
I've gived down in my knees
Mister, will you let me ride
In your machine, if you please?
