Scruffy The Cat - When Your Ship Comes In lyrics

Here's a story to tell, for all ne'er-do-wells And sadly, I know that it's true, yes it's true So if you hear truth or are living proof Then you know this could happen to you When your ship comes in and my luck runs out Then we'll know what our love's about I'll be waiting there up around the bend And when my luck runs out, that's when your ship comes in I'll be waiting there, down by the dock Heart in my hands, about three o'clock But time's running out, I know our love will end When I see that ship coming 'round the bend They got a stack full of papers down at the Union Hall And if you got a dime, they give you a number to call Well, some people make money, make it every day And other people got nothing but some bills to pay How long have I been waiting, waiting for that day To see some good luck rising, and I'll be on my way I'll leave her far behind, fortune's my only friend When I see that ship coming 'round the bend Here's a story to tell, for all you ne'er-do-wells So if you hear that truth, or are living proof Then I'll be waiting there, up around the bend And when your luck runs out, that's when your ship comes in
