(by Bob Marley)
In high seas or-a low seas,
I`m gonna be your friend;
I`m gonna be your friend.
In-a high tide or-a low tide,
I`ll be by your side;
I`ll be by your side.
(I heard her praying - praying - praying)
I said, I heard my mother;
She was praying (praying - praying - praying); yeah, and I -
And the words that she said (the words that she said),
They still-a lingers in my head (lingers in my head).
She said: "A child is born in this world,
He needs protection. Wo-oh, mm.
God, guide and protect us.
When we`re wrong, please correct us (when we`re wrong, correct us),
And stand by me," yeah!
High seas or-a low seas,
I`m gonna be your friend;
He said, "I`m gonna be your friend."
And, baby, high tide or low tide,
I`ll be by your side;
I`ll be by your side.
Mm. I said, I heard my mother;
She was cryin` (I heard her cryin`), yeah! (cryin`, cryin`).
And the tears that she shed (the tears that she shed),
They still lingers in my head (lingers in my head).
She said: "A child is born in this world,
He needs protection. O-oh, mm.
God, guide and protect us.
When we`re wrong (when we`re wrong), correct us." O-oh.
And in high seas or low seas,
I`m gonna be your friend;
I`m gonna be your friend.
Said, "High tide or low tide,
I`ll be by your side;
I`ll be by your side -"
