Came a long way to your country
Now you point your gun at me
Got no money, got no papers
I'm as scared as I can be
Don't know where I'm going
But I know I can't go back to where I've been
Now you tell me that the boat is full
And there ain't no room for me
Rock the boat, don't let me down
Rock the boat, don't let me down
Hard times in my homeland
Trouble in my town
Seen oppression, I've seen torture
Seen the blood upon the ground
Had to run for my life
To escape from captivity
Now you tell me that the boat is full
And there ain't no room for me
Rock the boat, don't let me down
Rock the boat, don't let me down
