What's it cost you darling?

What's it cost you darling?

What's it cost you?

What's it cost you?

Not very much!!

I got no people here on my boat

Just a hot jug of wine

And a net full of hope

I got no money

But I'm still afloat

Lost my luck to the wind

So I row and I row

I got this girl who waits back on the shore - Oh Lord

Sees me row, says she don't know what for - That's all

Ain't got no fish when I'm at her door

But in the morning When I leave

She's begging for more, and more!

I got no people here on my boat

Just a hot jug of wine

And a net full of hope - That's all

I got no money

But I'm still afloat

Lost my luck to the wind

So I row and I row

This cat and mouse game surely must end - Oh Lord

Catch all the fish, who'll left to be friends? - That's all

Back home its too tough I can't cope

But in the Land of Fish, I know someday I will be home

I got no people here on my boat

Just a hot jug of wine

And a net full of hope - I do know..

I got no money

But I'm still afloat

Lost my luck to the wind

So I row and I row

What's it cost you darling?

What's it cost you darling?

What's it cost you?

What's it cost you?

Not very much!!

Everybody Must Get Drunk.....

(instrumental)

I got no people here on my boat

Just a hot jug of wine

And a net full of hope (senza una donna)

I got no money

But I'm still afloat

Lost my luck to the wind

So I row and I row

Everybody Must Get Drunk!
