Ship of Fools
Garland Jeffreys
I’m sailin’ away
On the ship of fools
In this cafe
I’m gonna’ sing the blues
Some folks say that I’m here for them
That I’m here for you
But I’m here for me
And that’s true
On the ship of fools
My friends they lied
Behind my back
New ones come
I’m so confused
My mind’s made up
I won’t compromise
I’m all mixed up
And my eyes can’t see the truth
On the ship of fools
I know I’ve been here once before
Gonna’ see that ship again
From whence I don’t know when
I’m caught up here again
On the ship of fools
I may bе right and I may be wrong
But right or wrong
You can bet that I’m gonna’ be
Strong, strong, strong
On thе ship of fools
