Worn down shoes and worn down clothes
Nowhere to lay down my bones
There stands Billy, a gleam in his eye
One leg short and a glass drunk dry
He smells like seashells,
And he'll play that tune till
He'll play that tune till
Roly -roly waters, hopefully
won't you play it for me?
And nobody plays like you, like you
It's sixteen years since we
And time's been no friend
It's sixteen years since we
And Billy, what have we done,
Billy, what have we done?
Oh, play to me that melody
Of wa ters sweet and waters deep
It rolls me waves in the rolling waves
It rolls me down to my sleep
It rolls me down to my sleep
Won't you play it for me?
And nobody plays like you, like you
and nobody plays like you, like you
