I woke up with a pounding head
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Downside up in a water bed
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Message in a bottle bobbing on a wave
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Will it be delivered or a watery grave
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Down in the wildwood leaning on a stick
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Finger on the trigger and an eye on a pig
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Pulled the trigger and the gun said "bam!"
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
All natural organic honey baked ham
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
The Talking Blues ain't blues per se
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Talkin' and rappin' till you're blue in the face
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Woodrow Wilson is a hip-hop pioneer
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
Talkin' and rappin' till the blues disappear
Born in a shipwreck painted on a log
