Woman, oh woman Come away now From your window In the pontoon boat Woman, oh woman With your roof gone And your folks dead You know you gotta let go You know you must let go Five days, five nights Threw the bodies, baked in sunlight We just glide and try to stay alive Five days, five nights So hungry for the fight We just glide and try to stay alive Woman, oh woman Well the gas left for the angels Now it's time to row Woman, oh woman Crying gently with your head turned I kissed your cracked lips slow Above the streets below Five days, fives nights Through the darkness and baked in sunlight We just glide and try to stay alive Five days, five nights So hungry for the fight We just glide and try to stay alive There were great granet mausoleums Draped in felt Poking out top of brown water We rowed with a broom And a clip board taped to a Louisville slugger We picked up two small children with swollen bellies And fox hound that must've been swimming for days And we drifted toward the city eyes All the small towns were washed away Five days, five nights Through the darkness, and bake in sunlight Just glide and try to stay alive Five days, five nights So hungry for the fight We just glide and try to stay alive We try to stay alive
