Artist/Band: Stephen Stills
Lyrics for Song: Wooden Ships
Lyrics for Album: Just Roll Tape: April 26, 1968 [2007]



If you smile at me, I will understand

'Cause that is something

Everybody everywhere does in the same language

I can see by your coat

You're from the other side

There's just one thing I got to know

Can you tell me please, who won the silly war?

Say, "Can I have some of your purple berries?

Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now

Haven't got sick once

Probably keep us both alive

Wooden ships on the water, very free and easy

Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be



Silver people on the shoreline, let us be

Talkin' 'bout very free and easy

Horror grips us as we watch you die

All we can do is echo your anguished cries

Stare as all human feelings die

We are leaving, you don't need us

Go, take your sister then by the hand

Lead her away from this foreign land

Far away, where we might laugh again

We are leaving, you don't need us

And it's a fair wind, blowin' warm

Out of the south over my shoulder

Guess, I'll set a course and go
