my,
my, my ship is coming in
And you're the only
thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from above,
no how
Well I got myself a steady job
And I'm earning everybody's respect
Moving up, higher up
There's a future that I
got to protect
I've been saving every penny I can,
and I'm working on a
promising plan,
but it won't be complete till I'm
reaching for your feminine hand,
I keep on trying to tell you girl
My, my, my, ship is comin' in
And you're the only
thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is dockin' now
But I don't see you wavin' from the bow
So how? Ooh,
I got everything I need but you
What's a man in my position to do?
Got a home that was built and designed
for occupation by two, brand new
I can listen to my stereo, play it loud
I can drive my car where I wanna go,
anywhere, anywhere
ma terial things can't be bought
if you got money to blow
But money will buy devotion
My, my, ship is coming in
And you're the only
thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you waving from above
No how, no how
I'm getting much closer,
getting much closer
But then I want you,
can't you see I'm changing?
But all this violence, baby, without you
Is only making me sad and lonely
So sad, so sad, so sad and lonely
My, my, my, my ship,
my ship is coming in
And you're the only thing
that I don't need
My, my, my ship is docking now
But I don't see you wavin' from the bar,
no, ha!
My, my, my, my ship is comin' in
And you're the only thing that ain't on it
My, my, my ship is dockin' there
But I don't see you wavin' from the bar,
no, ha!
