Pay Me My Money Down - Lyrics (as sung by the Boss) I thought I heard the captain say Pay me my money down Tomorrow is our sailing day Pay me my money down CHORUS: Pay me, pay me Pay me my money down Pay me or go to jail Pay me my money down

As soon as the boat was clear of the bar Pay me my money down He knocked me down with the end of a spar Pay me my money down [Chorus] Well, If I'd been a rich man's son Pay me my money down I'd sit on the river and watch it run Pay me my money down [Chorus]

Well I wish I was Mr. Gates Pay me my money down Carry all that money in 'em crates. Pay me my money down [Chorus] Well, forty nights, and nights at sea Pay me my money down That captain worked every last dollar outta me. Pay me my money down [Chorus]

I'm a Springsteen fan. I wouldn't say I love this sort of music. BUT, when you walk into a bar and this song is crankin', you can't help but love it. BROOOOOOOOOOOOCE!!!!

his is dowing a great tribute to his music, and one of his singers, Pete Seeger. If you like bruce for his music fine, but if you like the lyrics you should hear closer this ones, they're pretty easy, but the message is really great. They were protest songs for a lot time not so far ago. And as already said, this stuff isnot in his albums, only in this tribute.
