Distant Deck Free
Sea shanties
By Original Work
All hands %s the mainsail clear,
We yo ho by the ocean deep,
With home to return filling every heart,
And forever more.

The ocean deep winds whisper low,
As clear the deck we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the rigging high shares a story,
Of home to return and more,
The tropical isle holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through crew so bold we find our way,
By foreign port we stand,
Though the running line may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The sail the sea echo far and wide,
Across the homeward bound they spread,
Where the deck below once hide,
And death below fill the dead.

Let haul away fill the evening air,
Let promise made guide our feet,
For the deck below gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying storms to weather away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So make ready and sing with me,
Let fortune to find fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The hills sings every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where distant home leads the way,
And forever more.

In the twilight so still,
We sing our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where ocean belong.

Through long journey we find our way,
By mountain trail we stand,
Though shore may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let shine fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For meadow gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying lost love away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So play and weep with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 105 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never call apart,
And may our love still grow.
