Drowning - New York Dolls

I swam out too far from the shore

I’m afraid you won’t see me anymore

Out in the middle of the rolling sea

With the waves and the water washing over me

Yeah mama!

Don’t let me down

I love you more than I did before

So don’t let me drown

I’m drowning in this sea of love

Can’t see land or the sky above

Hurry up baby get a hold on me

'Fore the devil in this water set my soul free

Mama!

Don’t let me drown

If I still mean anything to you

Don’t let me down

Mama!

I’m drowning

I’m not waving hello

I ain’t clowning around wit’cha baby

Don’t let me go

If you see me lost and drifting around

Reach out for me don’t let me pull you down

It’s over my head mama don’t let me drown

It’s gettin' so quiet I can’t hear a …

Mama!

Don’t let me drown

You swim so much better than me

Don’t let me drown

Well yeah, mama!

Don’t let me drown

Yeah mama!

mama!

Don’t let me drown
