Bouncing like a buoy Drifting on the water Singletary solitude man begins to holler He says, "Man overboard" I jump ship on the trip It was a worldwide cruise Trading riches for some fishes I've got nothing more to lose I'm a man overboard I'm a man overboard If it wasn't for the lighthouse Where would my life be On a ship bound for no where On an unforgiving sea I thank God For the light Legs and arms are burning Swim against the tide Keep an eye above the water So I can see the light I'm a man overboard I dream about the Savior I dream about the shore I feel the sand You take my hand And we will walk forevermore I'm a man overboard I'm a man overboard
