SINK OR SWIM
Yeah my mama once told me, now I’m gonna pass it on to you
When you find yourself in a jam in the middle of the blue
When you’re drownin’ in a sea of derision,
Take stock of yourself, and make a decision, you gotta
Sink or swim
You either gotta sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
You either gotta sink or swim
Life is a series of ups and downs, good and bad
If you’re lucky, it balances out, happy and sad
So go out in the world, my son,
And remember in a fix what has to be done
Sink or swim
You know you got to sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
Your option’s either sink or swim
Sometimes it’s hard to keep your head above the coming wave
And you’re all by yourself, goin’ down, it’s either save or cave
You think you got nothing more
But then something inside you leads you back to shore
Sink or swim
You either gotta sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
You either gotta sink or swim
Sink or swim
You know you got to sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
Your option’s either sink or swim
Yeah my mama once told me, now I’m gonna pass it on to you
When you find yourself in a jam in the middle of the blue
When you’re drownin’ in a sea of derision,
Take stock of yourself, and make a decision, you gotta
Sink or swim
You either gotta sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
You either gotta sink or swim
Life is a series of ups and downs, good and bad
If you’re lucky, it balances out, happy and sad
So go out in the world, my son,
And remember in a fix what has to be done
Sink or swim
You know you got to sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
Your option’s either sink or swim
Sometimes it’s hard to keep your head above the coming wave
And you’re all by yourself, goin’ down, it’s either save or cave
You think you got nothing more
But then something inside you leads you back to shore
Sink or swim
You either gotta sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
You either gotta sink or swim
Sink or swim
You know you got to sink or swim
Although you might just think it’s grim
Your option’s either sink or swim
