Six Months In A Leaky Boat

When I was a young boy
I wanted to sail 'round the world
That's the life for me
Living on the sea
Spirit of a sailor
Circumnavigates the globe
The lust of a pioneer
Will acknowledge no frontier

I remember you by, thunderclap in the sky
Lightning flash, tempers flare
'Round the horn if you dare

I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Lucky just to keep afloat

Aotearoa
Rugged individual
Glisten like a pearl
At the bottom of the world
The tyranny of distance
It didn't stop the cavalier
So why should it stop me
I'll conquer and stay free

Ah, c'mon all you lads
Let's forget and forgive
There's a world to explore
Tales to tell back on shore

I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Six months in a leaky boat

Good evening Hamilton
Thanks for all coming out, on a winters night

Ship-wrecked love can be cruel
Don't be fooled by her kind
There's a wind in my sails
Will protect and prevail

I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Nothing to it leaky boat
