Sail On, Sailor

I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean

Through restful waters and deep commotion

Often frightened, unenlightened

Sail on, sail on, sailor

I race the water, fight Neptune's waters

Sail through the sorrow of life's marauders

Unrepenting, 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

Life's a 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 seaway (Work the seaway)

The gale-swept seaway (Gale-swept seaway)

Past shipwrecked daughters (Shipwrecked daughters)

Of wicked waters

Uninspired, drenched and tired

Wail on, wail on, sailor

Always needing, even bleeding

Never feeding all my feelings

Damn the thunder, must I blunder?

There's no wonder all I'm under

Stop the crying and the lying

And the sighing and my dying

Sail on, sail on, sailor

Sail on, sail on, sailor

Sail on, sail on, sailor

Sail on, sail on, sailor
