Bobby Heron
And with the new day
Oh, where he set sail
His mother's heart sank
To hear fog horns wail
But he knew the sea
It was in his blood
And men in his day
They did what men should
She closes her eyes
And all she can see
Is waves surrounding
Her sweet Bobby
She has a tear
A man in the town
Who sees with his heart
Will track Bobby down
Poor Bobby Heron, only 21
Sailed out to sea, never to return
Poor Bobby Heron, now he is found
Flesh to the sea but bone to the ground
Her love, he has passed
But her heart's at ease
To know that her boy
Can now rest in peace
To brave lads who sail
Out there on the sea
Beware of its wrath
It took my Bobby
Poor Bobby Heron, only 21
Sailed out to sea, never to return
Poor Bobby Heron, now he is found
Flesh to the sea but bone to the ground
Oh, where he set sail
His mother's heart sank
To hear fog horns wail
But he knew the sea
It was in his blood
And men in his day
They did what men should
She closes her eyes
And all she can see
Is waves surrounding
Her sweet Bobby
She has a tear
A man in the town
Who sees with his heart
Will track Bobby down
Poor Bobby Heron, only 21
Sailed out to sea, never to return
Poor Bobby Heron, now he is found
Flesh to the sea but bone to the ground
Her love, he has passed
But her heart's at ease
To know that her boy
Can now rest in peace
To brave lads who sail
Out there on the sea
Beware of its wrath
It took my Bobby
Poor Bobby Heron, only 21
Sailed out to sea, never to return
Poor Bobby Heron, now he is found
Flesh to the sea but bone to the ground
