Cannonball Lyrics

These old rusty sails
Still guide my way
Open waters
To the edge of a quiet bayWhen my ship rolls in
On a gentle wave
I see clouds of powder
From shots that were aimed at me[Chorus:]
Oh no, cannonball
Won't take us down, won't break these walls
Or sink, sink my sturdy ship down
Don't you think, think you could ever make me drown
And it's oh, oh cannonball
Oh, oh my cannonball
Oh, oh cannonball
Gonna take us in, take us in, take us in, take us inI'm no pirate, babe
And I don't act that way
Float my boat
On a quarter note, sea swayThere's no need for this

All this hostile fire
But rest assured, when waters are stirred
We all ride the tide and nothing is yours[Chorus:]
Oh no, cannonball
Won't take us down, won't break these walls
Or sink, sink my sturdy ship down
Don't you think, think you could ever make me drown
And it's oh, oh cannonball
Oh, oh my cannonball
Oh, oh cannonball
Gonna take us in, take us in, take us in, take us in
