Lyrics Fat Freddy's Drop

Fat Freddy's Drop

The Raft

Though my hands are cold and my mouth is dry

Well, this journey's told, is a mountain high

Though the wind she burns, like an angel's flame, she

will give me strength so I can move again

And though my people may not be many, we are ready for

the storm to come

And though my people may not be many, we are ready to

be strong as one,

And though my people, travel light, they are willing to

fight the fight

And though my people may not be many we are ready

We have got to find a way, let it be done, let it be

done (ooh)

Do you want to keep the faith until the storm has

broken ?

We have got to find a way to rise above the pain ...

My men come, he cross the waters

My men come he cross the sea (yes)

He has the sons, he has the daughters,

But he brings with him sea (ooh)

And though my people may not be many, we are ready for

the storm to come

And though my people may not be many, we are ready to

be strong as one,

And though my people, travel light, they are willing to

fight the fight

And though my people may not be many we are ready

We have got to find a way, let it be done, let it be

done (ooh)

Do you want to keep the faith until the storm has

broken ?

We have got to find a way to rise above the pain ...

The industry - they'll never find me, here among the

trees

My footsteps will be, will be all that I leave

Oh lonely island, so rich and fair, we leave your

shores for reasons unclear

Looking for a better life, and you are all that I need,

(hey)

All that I need.
