Sail On, Sailor
I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor
I wrest the waters, fight Neptune's borders
Sail through the sorrows of life's marauders
Un-repenting, often empty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Caught like a sewer rat alone but I sail
Bought like a crust of bread but oh, do I wail?
Seldom stumble, never crumble
Try to tumble, minor rumble
Feel the stinging I've been given
Never ending, unrelenting
Heartbreak searing, always fearing
Never caring, persevering
Sail on, sail on sailor
I work the seaways (I work the seaways)
The gale-swept seaways (oh, the seaways)
Past shipwrecked daughters (oh, the daughters)
Of wicked waters (oh)
Uninspired, drenched and tired
Wail on, wail on sailor
Always needing, even bleeding
Never feeling all my feelings
Damn the thunder, must I blunder?
There's no wonder all I'm under (ooh)
Stop the crying and the lying
And the sighing, am I dying?
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor (sailor, sailor, sailor)
Sail on, sail on sailor
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor
I wrest the waters, fight Neptune's borders
Sail through the sorrows of life's marauders
Un-repenting, often empty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Caught like a sewer rat alone but I sail
Bought like a crust of bread but oh, do I wail?
Seldom stumble, never crumble
Try to tumble, minor rumble
Feel the stinging I've been given
Never ending, unrelenting
Heartbreak searing, always fearing
Never caring, persevering
Sail on, sail on sailor
I work the seaways (I work the seaways)
The gale-swept seaways (oh, the seaways)
Past shipwrecked daughters (oh, the daughters)
Of wicked waters (oh)
Uninspired, drenched and tired
Wail on, wail on sailor
Always needing, even bleeding
Never feeling all my feelings
Damn the thunder, must I blunder?
There's no wonder all I'm under (ooh)
Stop the crying and the lying
And the sighing, am I dying?
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor (sailor, sailor, sailor)
Sail on, sail on sailor
