Dermot Kennedy - Swim Good Lyrics






That's a pretty big trunk
On my Lincoln town car ain't it
Big enough to take these broken hearts
And put em in it
Now I'm driving round
On the boulevard trunk bleeding
And every time the cops pull me over
They don't ever see them
They never see them

And I've got this black suit on
I've been roaming around like I'm ready for a funeral
Five more miles till the road runs out

I'm about to drive in the ocean
Imma try to swim from something
Bigger than me
Kick off my shoes
And swim good
And swim good
Take off this suit
And swim good
And swim good

Got some pretty good beats
On this 808 CD, beat it, beat it
Memory seats I'm sitting on stay heated
I would've put tints on my windows
But what's the difference?
If I feel like a ghost no Swayze
Ever since I lost my baby

And I've got this black suit on
I've been roaming around like I'm ready for a funeral
One more mile till the road runs out

I'm about to drive in the ocean
Imma try to swim from something
Bigger than me
Kick off my shoes
And swim good
And swim good
Take off this suit
And swim good
And swim good

I'm going off
Don't try stopping me
I'm going off
Don't try saving me
No flares
No vest
No fear
Waves are washing me out

I'm about to drive in the ocean
Imma try to swim from something
Bigger than me
Kick off my shoes
And swim good
And swim good
Take off this suit
And swim good
And swim good

No...

  2. N.... S....

    😭💔

  3. H.... K....

    Love this song have it on repeat it speak to my soul

  4. V.... X....

    All sagittarius people are one of a kind. Im excited for your birthday coming up!

  5. J.... O....

  8. L.... H....

    Amazing💙💙

  9. T.... S....

    I love your music.

  10. H.... 4....

    Can I drive with you? I know a way to survive underwater by keeping fluid and air rotating.

  11. J.... O....

    I’m worried because i can get you only one like. Amazing, i can’t discribe that! ;D

  12. E.... D....

    Aye to all the dumbasses out here saying "dermot is so amazing omfg". THIS IS A FRANK OCEAN SONG, give credit to the legend

    E.... D....

    i mean, this is an amazing version of the song

    E.... D....

    Michaela Whitehouse I agree 100%

    E.... D....

    Doesnt matter if its franks song... this version destroyed it brov

  13. k.... b....

    So, so beautiful. First heard of Dermot 3 days ago on the Ellen show. Said to my daughter O M G ! I love the song 'Power over me', she said mum..,..... listen to Swim good. Beautiful voice

    k.... b....

    I really hope you didn't stop there. His stripped back stuff where it's just Dermot and a guitar or a piano, or in a small studio with minimal backing blows me away

  14. R.... J....

    Nice cover..

  15. S.... S....

    I've been trying to find this version for a solid hour cause I couldn't remember the title. I heard the original and was confused why I liked it so much and then I remembered this cover

  16. n.... n....

    Not near frank standard.

  17. n.... y....

    LOVE IT

  18. B.... ....

    nice...

  19. D.... D....

    Never heard of Frank Ocean but listened to his original after I'd listened to Dermot's cover. Frank is good but Dermot has ruined me for others. I'm not sad.
    Éirinn go Brách

    D.... D....

    Ruined u??

  20. m.... a....

    ICH SCHMELZE... <3

    M.... I....

    @jahnrasta Fr so many ppl thinking this geezer dermot made this masterpiece when its frank's

    M.... I....

    @The Golden Era yeah its annoying as fuck cuz this version blows compared to franks

  22. R.... W....

    🚶🏽‍♂️...

  23. S.... N....

    Omg his voice so beautiful. I listen for hours and my ears have never heard such beauty he is so talented

  24. N.... F....

    Perfection

  25. T.... t....

    i need a live version of this song.

    T.... t....

    YOU NEED TO JUST LISTEN TO THE ORIGINAL ONE BY FRANK OCEAN

    T.... t....

    No this versions a million times better than that millenial wack sudo rnb bullshit

    T.... t....

    Props to him and the 4 other writers that wrote it but the original sucks

  26. A.... B....

    I'm a big fan don't get me wrong but he stole Frank oceans song!

    A.... B....

    It's called a cover...

    A.... B....

    Ari Cyr lol

    A.... B....

    Its a cover

  27. L.... A....

    When a song hits you like a truck.

    L.... A....

    Lola Ann Domino or like a lincoln town car

    L.... A....

    Unreal right

  28. H.... B....

    This song chills wowwwww

  29. I.... C....

    i just love this song

  30. I.... C....

    such a sad song. it made me cry😭

  31. J.... L....

    This a Frank Ocean song why is this guy trying to capitalize off this song under Universal Music Group???

    J.... L....

    He isn’t? It’s a COVER!

    J.... L....

    @Ari Cyr What famous musicians?? I did my research I see NONE. If its live that doesn't count that can be perceived as homage. This guy has Frank Ocean's Swim Good as his own titled without referring to it as a COVER. The fact its under Universal Music Group means he's making profits from this song being played/stream on Youtube or Spotify.Foolish tool.

    J.... L....

    He kills every cover he does... makes the originals sound pathetic my g

    J.... L....

    Jose get off frank oceans dick... ues fucking wack

    J.... L....

    @joe mcginnis Garbage ass cover only u like it

  32. S.... L....

    He's amazing.

  33. M.... d....

    excellent

  34. B.... A....

    Another lovley song in my ears and soul. I'm in love. Like I said before. If I had one wish...

  35. S.... K....

    No flare, no vest, no fear.... it’s the way to tackle every difficulty in life!

    S.... K....

    Sandra Kocan into darkness, nothing to light the way. Nothing to hold you up or keep you safe. No fear for what comes next.

  36. H.... m....

    Frank Ocean no longer owns this song

    H.... m....

    Chey Mcl Fuck Outta here

    H.... m....

    Seriously. One of the rare covers that kills the original.

    H.... m....

    James Soroe That aint it chief

    H.... m....

    Chey Mcl facts

    H.... m....

    Whoa whoa whoa it’s amazing but it’s FRANKS fo time cmon now lol
