Oh My Captain - Rayland Baxter

Oh my captain, Oh my captain

I’ve been working hard for you

Trying to make you love me too

Doing all that I can for my captain

Oh my captain, open your eyes

See the rebel on the stairs

And are there roamers everywhere

And how it seems that no one cares for my captain

Tell me now what is going on

See the ground that I’m standing on

How it crumbles at my feet

As we dance you remind me

Oh my captain, Oh my captain

I’ve remembered every song

And now I’ve learned to sing them all

Still I wonder what is wrong with my captain

Oh my captain, hold on to me

Tell me why you let me go

And why the anchor man needs rope

Already half way off the boat for my captain

Tell me now what is going on

See the tower that I’m coming from

How it shakes beneath my feet

As we fall you remind me

Oh my captain, Oh my captain

Now it’s time for me to part

Rip the needle from my heart

We were so wrong from the start oh my captain
