Mayday, mayday do you read me?

I think I'm about to fall

The bottom is rising faster

Do you heed my call?

'cause I've been up here so damn long

in this mean old plain

and there's fever in my cabin, Lord

and I'm hangin' from the mane......

Let me down slowly when you're lettin' me down

I promise to be holy when you're letting me down

Oh! come on let me down

Mayday, mayday do you read me?

the breaks are all ceased up

I can hardly move,

my bones are all ceased up

'cause I've been up here so damn long

I can't remember why I came

And there's fever in my cabin bunk

And there's only me to blame, that's right

Let me down slowly when you're lettin' me down

I promise to be holy when you're letting me down

Oh! come on let me down

Mayday, mayday do you read me?

the breaks are all ceased up

I can hardly move,

my bones are all ceased up

'cause I've been up here so damn long

I can't remember why I came

And there's fever in my cabin bunk

And there's only me to blame, that's right

Let me down slowly when you're lettin' me down

I'll be you're one and lonely when you're lettin' me down

Oh! come on let me down

Down, dooown, dooowwwn, down

Mayday, mayday do you read me?

I think I'm cracking up
