Burl Ives - Throw out the lifeline lyrics

Burl Ives - Throw out the lifeline

Chorus

Throw out the life line

Throw out the life line

Someone is drifting away

Throw out the life line

Throw out the life line

Someone is sinking today

Throw out the life line

Across the dark water

There is a brother that someone could save

Somebody's brother needs help today

[chorus]

Throw out the life line

With hands big and strong

Why do you tempt me

Why must you wait so long

You see me sinking

Hasten today

Throw out the life line

I'm drifting away

[chorus]

Throw out the life line

Danger from man

Someone's in trouble

Do the best you can

Ain't in temptation

Pillars of woe

Throw out the life line

When darkness takes over

[chorus]

[chorus]

[chorus]
