Flatt & Scruggs - Take Me in a 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.
