Slaveship

by Josh Rouse

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A slave ship, lost at sea
A slave ship, lost at sea
And I'm drownin', your waters deep
I'm drownin', your waters deep

[Verse 2]
The spaceship, in a country
A spaceship, in a country
And we're flying into green
We're flying into green

[Chorus]
And I told you a thousand times (I told you a thousand times)
I sold you a thousand lines (I sold you a thousand lines)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?

[Verse 3]
A city, there's an empty street
The city, there's an empty street
And we're dancin' to the lonely beat
We're dancin' to the lonely beat

[Verse 4]
Your building (Aww) is where we'll meet
Your building (Aww) is where we'll meet
And I'm hungry, let's get something to eat
I'm hungry, let's get something to eat

[Chorus]
And I told you a thousand times (I told you a thousand times)
I sold you a thousand lines (I sold you a thousand lines)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
Your daddy, he ain't like me
Your daddy, he ain't like me
I'm striving, as someone to be
I'm striving, I got a degree

[Verse 6]
One day, girl, you will be my queen
One day girl (Aww), I will be your king
And we'll reign in our castle supreme
We'll reign in our castle supreme

[Chorus]
'Cause I told you a thousand times (I told you a thousand times)
I sold you a thousand lines (I sold you a thousand lines)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?
I told you a thousand times (I told you a thousand times)
I sold you a thousand lines (I sold you a thousand lines)
I love you, would you marry me?
I love you, would you marry me?
