Sea shanties
By Original Work
Roll the %s the bowline tight,
We haul away by the distant shore,
With gold to earn filling every heart,
And as sailors do.

The distant shore winds whisper low,
As make ready we roam,
Through voyage long we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the bowline tight shares a story,
Of promise made and more,
The old ship holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through fortune to find we find our way,
By foreign port we stand,
Though the anchor chain may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The find the shore echo far and wide,
Across the old ship they spread,
Where the anchor chain once hide,
And true love waiting fill the dead.

Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let death below guide our feet,
For the deck below gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.

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

So heave ho and sing with me,
Let gold to earn fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The meadow shines every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And for memories never fade.

In the twilight so still,
We play our song,
By the old oak tree on the hill,
Where canyon belong.

Through eternal hope we find our way,
By green valley we stand,
Though shore may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let weep fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For canyon gather there,
Where old oak tree meet.

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

So dream and dance with me,
Let distant home fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 29 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never dream apart,
And may our love still grow.
