Sunken Boat Song Lyrics

These are the lyrics to the song Sunken Boat by Beccy Owen and Dan Bye.

Chorus
Baling sand from a sunken boat
Tide comes in and piles it up again
Tide goes out as the night arrives
And we’re baling sand from the boat again
Yes we’re baling sand from the boat again

Verse 1
We bought it from a pirate
Or at least that’s what he said he was
It sank before we sailed it
And the sand filled it up on the tide

For a month we baled it
Day and night
But we never got to sail it
Y’can’t fight the tide

Chorus
Baling sand from a sunken boat
Tide comes in and piles it up again
Tide goes out as night arrives
And we’re baling sand from the boat again
Yes we’re baling sand from the boat again

Verse 2
There was a time when this was houses
And a future hope thrived
I remember when these buildings
Were the engines of our lives

Now I’m tired of seeing briars
And a barbed wire fence
This place could be a garden
Or a home again

Chorus
Baling sand from a sunken boat
Tide comes in and piles it up again
Tide goes out as the night arrives
And we’re baling sand from the boat again
Yes we’re baling sand from the boat again

Verse 3
Look there’s a man gathering rust
Burnished metal gathering dust
A fistful of bolts and a hand full of hope
Like bailing sand from a sunken boat

That which time has rent asunder
That which tide has buried under
Let no one knit back together
Try as we might we can’t fight the weather

Chorus
Baling sand from a sunken boat
Tide comes in and piles it up again
Tide goes out as night arrives
And we’re baling sand from the boat again
Yes we’re baling sand from the boat again

Yes we’re baling sand from the boat again
