Lyrics
I've sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on, sailor
I wrest the waters, I fight Neptune's waters
I sail through the sorrows 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, then woe do I wail
Seldom stumble, try to tumble
Never crumble, life's a rumble
Feel the stinging, I've been living
Never ending, unrelenting
Heartbreak searing, persevering
Never clearing, always fearing
Sail on, sail on, sailor
I've worked the seaways, the gale-swept seaways
Past shipwrecked daughters of wicked waters
Uninspired, drenched and tired
Sail on, wail on, sailor
Always feeling to be flailing
Never feeling all my feelings
And the thunder must I blunder
There's no wonder, Lord I'm under
Stop the lying and the sighing
And the crying and my 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
Sail on, sail on, sailor
Billy Henchy!
