Travelling on a sinking ship
Trying to reach the shore
But the weather is so rough
We just can't take any more

Some haffi go overboard, I tell you now
Some a go come 'pon tour
But the weather is so rough
We just can't take it any more
Take it again

Throw some overboard
For we just can't take any more
Take it any more, take it any more
We just can't take any more
Take it any more, take it any more

Travelling on a sinking ship
Trying to reach the shore
But as one destination
Trying to reach the goal

Some haffi go overboard, I tell you now
It is a heavy load
But the weather is so rough
We just might stand a little chance
Tell them again

Throw some overboard
For we just can't take any more
Take it any more, take it any more
We just can't take it any more
Take it any more, take it any more

Jah children better watch out, yeah ah
There's iceberg in front of you now
Jah children better watch out, yeah
There's a reason in front of you now

And you don't know what to do
And you don't know what to say
The lifeboat is on its way now
And you don't know what to do
And you don't know what to say
The lifeboat is on its way now

Throw some overboard
It's a heavy load
And just can't take any more
Take it any more, take it any more
We just can't take any more
Take it any more, take it any more

Travelling on a sinking ship
Trying to reach the shore
But the weather is so rough
We just can't take it any more

Some haffi go overboard, as I tell you now
Some a go come 'pon tour
But the weather is so rough
We just can't take it any more
Tell them again

Throw some overboard
For we just can't take any more
Take it any more, take it any more
We just can't take any more
