(hummmmm) The wind is cold,
the timber creaks
We haven't seen the land for weeks
The salt is biting at the bone
A thousand miles away from home
Pull the line and hold it tight
We brave the swell into the night
(heave, ho)
The captain drinks his bitter tea
And stares out at the endless sea
With heavy hands and aching knees
We pray for just a gentle breeze
Pull the line and hold it tight
We brave the swell into the night
(heave, ho) (ahhhh)
