Thank God I am Still Here

Ptuii. What? Where am I?

Damned salt water,

I didn’t die?



Thank you lord for saving me,

Even though I am shark bait here,

In this deep blue sea.



I pray lord that you saw fit,

To make sure my wonderful wife,

Made it.



Lord, I am insignificant as people go,

But our babies need their mother so.

So Lord, a last request before I die,

Is to let her to safety fly.



Well Lord, it is just you and me out here,

Be nice, right now to have a cold beer.

What? Look behind me you say,

Well I’ll be dipped, there is a case,

Coming my way.



Lord, I got to say,

You are a right good traveling partner today.

I wouldn’t want to press my luck and ask,

But a boat would be nice if it not to great a task.



Well, I didn’t think so,

I will just bob around with our beer,

Til something flows near.



You know Lord, looking back at it,

I wish I had had dessert on the buffet.

I sure don’t have to worry about my weight now.

I think I am so hungry I could eat a cow…



Raw.



Well Lord, I think I will take a nap,

Tell Seina I love her, I would,

But it would my energy sap.

Don’t let her give up hope,

Lord, we aren’t yet at the end or our rope.

Huh, here I am Lord,

I am awake now,

What’s the word.



I don’t see a rescue ship,

What, oh! Over there,

A boat that has flipped.



Well strike me down Lord,

You made a believer of me,

Get me out of this one

I swear I will never do it again,

You’ll see.



There, we got it upright,

I will have to bail by hand,

But should have it by tonight.



Look here there is a first aid kit,

With this tarp under the bow,

And this oar, a sail I could knit.



Oops, can’t forget our beer,

Gotta get that in here.

With the crabs down there,

It won’t be such bad fare.



Siena, my love, hold on

I’ll be there,

If the winds helps,

And the weather stays fair.



Lord, take my message to her,

On an angels wings,

Her prayers will be answered,

To her you will me bring.



Well Lord, we have work to do,

If you would like,

Have a beer or two.



Me? No thanks, I am just happy to be alive er,

Besides, I appear to be the designated driver.
