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 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
