When I'd reach land again
Lost on the ocean blue
And upon the wave they tossed
Well, my heart is sore and I can't reach shore
Won't you throw out the line and say you're mine
With a rub-a-dub-dub, three men in the tub
Is now at rainbow's end
Lost on the ocean blue
And I can't go on this way
'Cause you broke my heart in two
I roll like a hub, sing, rub-a-dub-dub
And take me back again
With the love I can't forget
Like you and me they couldn't agree
I roll like a hub, sing, rub-a-dub-dub
On an ocean of regret
With a rub-a-dub-dub, three men in the tub
Well, I knew right away there'd never come a day
Lost on the ocean blue
Won't you reach and pull me in
Now one said Fate, one said Hate
The one I 'dore on the distant shore
I roll like a hub, sing, rub-a-dub-dub
With a rub-a-dub-dub, three men in the tub
To the three little guys, I turn my eyes
Well, I'll sing their tune 'cause I got marooned
Now the three little men just took me in
'Cause you broke my heart in two
And I'm driftin' far away
Won't you tell your names to me
From the love I had and I'm feelin' mighty bad
And the other said Jealousy
'Cause my rudder's broke and it ain't no joke
