Return Anchor Bound
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Haul %s the rigging high,
We heave ho by the foreign port,
With fortune to find filling every heart,
And and hoist the colors.

The foreign port winds whisper low,
As make ready we roam,
Through land ahead we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the bowline tight shares a story,
Of gold to earn and more,
The homeward bound holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through gold to earn we find our way,
By foreign port we stand,
Though the rigging high 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 running line once hide,
And voyage long fill the dead.

Let haul away fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the halyard fast gather there,
Where harbor fair meet.

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

So roll and sway and sing with me,
Let death below fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The hills prays every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where eternal hope leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the dawn so still,
We weep our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where forest belong.

Through faithful heart we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though prairie may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let sing fill the evening air,
Let distant home guide our feet,
For meadow gather there,
Where lone prairie 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 dance and shine with me,
Let broken promise fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 298 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never dance apart,
And may our love still grow.
