Ishmael & Maggie Lyrics - Den Of Thieves - The Trews

Hello my name is Ishmael 

forget the one about the whale 

I'll tell you of a broken hearted sailor 

Maggie took my loyalty 

I treated her like royalty 

What starts out with such promise ends in failure 

Oh my love I can't stand to be alone 

I been drinkin too much I better go home 

And I think here I'm better off alone 

but I been thinkin too much I better go home 

All hail the queen of cruelty 

She has duly been annointed 

These final words her majesty had to say 

He who expects nothing never will be disappointed 

Nothings what she left me so i guess im ok 

oh my love i can't stand to be alone 

I been drinkin too much i better go home 

And i think here we all stand alone 

but i been thinkin too much I better go home 

La la la la la 

La la la la la 

A promise made to a tab unpaid 

is home my way to a bed unmade 

A fool to think that i could ever change her 

a king upon my bar stool throne 

a vow to never drink alone 

I only drink with friends or total strangers 

We're all broken hearted here 

We're all broken hearted here 

We're all broken hearted here 

We're all broken 

Oh my love i can't stand to be alone 

and i been drinkin too much i better go home 

and i think here we all stand alone 

but i been thinkin too much i better go home 

i better go home 

i better go home 

i better go home 

i better go home 

i better go home
