Woody Guthrie - Reckless Talk lyrics

CHORUS: Oh, you see what your reckless talk can do? Don't you see what your reckless talk can do? You can see what your reckless talk can do I don't want no reckless talk from you! There is a ship that sails the ocean blue There is a ship that sails the ocean blue There is a ship that sails the ocean blue And her name I cannot tell to you CHORUS When you hear of a ship and a crew done gone When you hear of a ship and a crew done gone When you hear of a ship and a crew done gone See what your rattling tongue has done! CHORUS That ocean's dark and the ocean's cold That ocean's dark and the ocean's cold That ocean's dark and the ocean's cold So don't raffle off everything you know CHORUS A clattering tongue is an awful thing A clattering tongue is an awful thing A clattering tongue is an awful thing When you think of the sorrow it might bring CHORUS The least little word that you might say The least little word that you might say The least little word that you might say Might send a ship to a watery grave CHORUS Us boys that ride this ocean blue Us boys that ride this ocean blue Us boys that ride this ocean blue We don't want no reckless talk from you
