Tea Leaf Green - All Washed Up lyrics

I am standing here today without a dollar to my name I've paid my dues, I've jumped my claim I'm a just a child of the wind And I have sailed, I have sunk I've died of thirst, and I've been drunk Everything I own is packed into a trunk It's at the bottom of the ocean When the ships go in, the ships go out The tide rolls in, and my days run out Everyday I'm on the watch for the boat I lost I'm all washed up Yes I'm all washed up I have walked down foreign streets I have heard secrets that I didn't keep And I once loved a girl, she was so sweet She rotted out all of my teeth Oh yes the ships go in, the ships go out The tide rolls in, and my days run out Everyday I'm on the watch for the boat I lost I'm all washed up Yes I'm all washed up It's easy to get home under a tail wind Even when your timbers rot, your anchor's dropped Your seas are chop, yes you're all washed up I've been baked, I've been burned I've been loved, and I've been spurned I've forgotten more than I have ever learned It's all at the bottom of a bottle When the ships go in, the ships go out The tide rolls in, and my days run out Everyday I'm on the watch for the boat I lost I'm all washed up Yes I'm all washed up
