I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
I'm stranded here on an empty rock
While the ships just pass me by
And the sun has burned a hole in me
That the moon fills every night
I watch stars explode right over my head
"And one day son, you'll find your place"
That's what the big man said
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
Here I am, I'm locked away in the middle of the bay
Too far to swim, too high to jump
Too close to drift away
I almost made it almost found
The place I want to be
"And one day son, you'll find your place"
The big man said to me
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
(Turn me up, turn me up, turn me up)
And I can see the world now
With my head inside the clouds
And the stone walls inside my heart
I watch them tumble down
I dig the dirt for a pot of gold
And I see you coming through
The best thing you'll never have
Is right in front of you
I've never been good, but I've never been bad
Just one of the boys, just one of the lads
And when they wrap me up
And send me out to sea
I hope they'll say a prayer
I hope they'll drink to me
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
I hope they sell beer, my dear
I hope they sell beer
I hope they sell beer in hell, my dear
