Man Overboard

I'm sure that you remember him
He used to come around here a lot
He never wanted much attention
But he could hear the things we taught
He's got a lot of trouble at home
And I've been trying to give him a hand
And lately he's been slipping deeper
And I don't know how long he'll stand

Somebody help me

There's a man overboard
Sinking in the turning tide
There's a man overboard
And I don't know what sent him
Over the side
But there isn't much time, no!

I know it's easy to shake your head
And say, "Too bad," and walk away
I've done it far too many times myself
When I couldn't find a thing to say
But this is my brother, this is my friend
I love him more than I can tell
And I can't bail him out all by myself
And I won't watch him go to hell

Somebody help me

There's a man overboard
Sinking in the turning tide
There's a man overboard
Well, I don't know what sent him
Over the side
But there isn't much time, no!

Hey, hey, hey
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Somebody help me

Why are we here?
Why do we live?
How can we take
More than we give?

There's a man overboard
He's sinking in the turning tide
There's a man overboard
Don't know what sent him
Over the side

There's a man overboard
Sinking in the turning tide
There's a man overboard
And I don't know what sent him
Over the side
But there isn't much time
No, there isn't much time
There isn't much time
No, there isn't much time

No, there isn't much time
No, there isn't much time
No, there isn't much time
No, there isn't much time
No, there isn't much time
