the beautiful south
the lure of the sea
If I walk like a fool, I've walked like that since school  But maybe it's the lure of the sea  Who knows the effect,   That whisky could've had on me It could've been the lure of the sea   'Cause leather ain't as strong as the weather But leather can strangle any dream And leather ain't as strong as the weather  But leather took Curtis from me  Maybe it's the lure of the sea, Maybe it's the lure of the sea Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty But maybe it's the lure of the sea  Once I felt chained, and now, now I feel free Maybe it's the lure of the sea Polo and Da Gama,  Well those two had nothing on me  Could be I'm a sucker for the sea  'Cause silver, ain't as quick as the tongue But silver, took the M.L.K so young And metal ain't as strong as the petal   But metal left the verse unsung  Maybe it's the lure of the sea, Maybe it's the lure of the sea Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty But maybe it's the lure of the sea  Freedom's taken a liking to me Maybe it's the lure of the sea Look in my eyes 'cause my belt's broke free Maybe it's the lure of the sea  The Pirates Of Penzance,  They have nothing on me Maybe it's the lure of the sea  Maybe it's the lure of the sea, maybe it's the lure of the sea  Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty But maybe it's the lure of the sea  Maybe it's the lure of the sea, maybe it's the lure of the sea  Suicide's just the anarchist that kicks down modesty But maybe it's the lure of the sea
