Ship me out on the water 
Ship me out on the sea
Ship me out on the water
But please don't bury me

As I die now, don't cry for me, don't you cry for me
My soul's setting sail on open waters, and there's lot left me to see
And as you come down to lay my body by
Leave your spades just where they be
If you want to know just what I need, step back and then listen to me

Ship me out on the water
Ship me out on the sea
Ship me out on the water
But please don't bury me

I've been a sailor, all my life, a sailor all my life
And when the darkness comes to take me under, I'll be a sailor when I die
There's no friend like a distant wind
It calls me like a whispered song
So when it's my time to leave this place, this is how you can send me along

Ship me out on the water
Ship me out on the sea
Ship me out on the water
But please don't bury me

As I die now, don't cry for me, don't you cry for me
My soul's setting sail on open waters, and there's lot left me to see
And as you come down to lay my body by
Leave your spades just where they be
If you want to know just what I need, step back and then listen to me

Ship me out on the water
Ship me out on the sea
Ship me out on the water
But please don't bury me
