Jack Johnson - Let It Be Sung Lyrics






There must be a forecast that you won't let yourself see,
So you keep watchin' as you're driftin', sail away from what you need.
Why don't I just give you everything you'll take from me?
Cuz' nobody owns anything and everyone is free.

And that's why this ship is goin' down,
Desperately, I need a sound.
A song to sing so we can carry on.
Just let it be sung so we can carry on...

God fearing people at the bottom of the sea,
Walkin' without lanterns, let a stone skip over thee.
Hi-ho away as in the sea,
Hi-ho be gone,
So let's just dance,
We'll waltz above the ocean.

this ship is goin' down,
Desperately, I need a sound.
A song to sing so we can carry on.
Just let it be sung so we might carry on...
Let it be sung so we...
Let it be sung so we could carry on.

I've heard all of the stories and in them I've put my trust,
You've gotta touch the bottom before you can come back up.
And I know what you're heart is tellin' you...
Cuz' my heart's tellin' me the same thing too:

This ship is goin' down,
Desperately, I need a sound.
A song to sing so we can carry on.
Just let it be sung so we might carry on...
Let it be sung so we...
Let it be sung so we could carry on.

  1. V.... M....

    The best Jack Johnson's song.

  2. k.... ....

    This song makes my soul be easy
    = ]

  3. K.... M....

    As the seas rise due to our complacency, ignorance, and greed, it's hard to think it will get better until we, collectively, hit bottom. Coming to terms with this likely outcome causes a great deal of grief, grief for what all of us will be facing, what could have been had we cared enough to do what was needed to prevent suffering on a wide scale. So let this song be an anthem of hope, so we can get through it, and eventually learn from our mistakes.

    LYRICS

    There must be a forecast
    That you won't let yourself see
    So you keep watching as you're driftin'
    Sail away from what you need

    Why don't I just give you
    Everything you'll take from me
    'Cuz nobody owns anything
    And everyone is free

    Thats why

    This ship is goin' down
    Desperately I need a sound
    A song to sing so we could carry on
    Just let it be sung so we could carry on

    God fearing people at the bottom of the sea
    Walkin' without lanterns let a stone skip over thee
    Hi ho away as in the sea
    Hi ho be gone lets just dance
    Waltz above the ocean

    This ship is goin' down
    Desperately I need a sound
    A song to sing so we could carry on
    Just let it be sung so we might carry on
    Let it be sung so we
    Let it be sung so we could carry on

    I've heard all of the stories
    And in them I've put my trust
    You gotta touch the botton before you can come back up
    And I know what your heart is telling you
    'Cuz my hearts telling me the same thing too

    This ship is goin' down
    Desperately I need a sound
    A song to sing so we can carry on
    Just let it be sung so we might carry on
    Let it be sung so we
    Let it be sung so we can carry on

    P.... M....

    swim fins

    P.... M....

    2:15-2:18 he starts the break of the wave, amazinggg

    P.... M....

    @Peter McAuley The answers is on fins he were using!!! lots of bodysurfing can do the same but needs using a proper fins to push strongly to make the body go out of the water. See to bodysurfing footages

    P.... M....

    HAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH thanks for this Peter!! <3

  38. C.... T....

    Happy Birthday, Jack! (May 18)

  39. E.... S....

    This song makes me think about my life... Rush, stress, etcc

    E.... S....

    I know it's an old comment, but... Same here. How did I get into such stress, and how to get the hell out of it! I guess taking a trip to the ocean, staring at the stars, etc. would be a good start!
