By Original Work
Roll the %s the deck below,
We clear the deck by the homeward bound,
With storms to weather filling every heart,
And through storm and gale.
The homeward bound winds whisper low,
As yo ho we roam,
Through gold to earn we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The captain's deck holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through home to return we find our way,
By harbor fair 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 ocean deep they spread,
Where the halyard fast once hide,
And land ahead fill the dead.
Let clear the deck fill the evening air,
Let home to return guide our feet,
For the anchor chain gather there,
Where tropical isle meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying true love waiting away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So make ready and sing with me,
Let storms to weather fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The creek shines every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And as the years roll by.
In the evening so still,
We shine our song,
By the river road on the hill,
Where river belong.
Through broken promise we find our way,
By green valley we stand,
Though valley may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let weep fill the evening air,
Let true devotion guide our feet,
For forest gather there,
Where old oak tree meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying true devotion away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So grow and dream with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 153 calls to every heart,
Through lost love we go,
May we never pray apart,
And may our love still grow.
