GOLDEN EARRING lyrics : "Sail On Sailor"

(Almer/Kennedy/Parks)
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 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
Oh, did I wail
Seldom stumble, never crumble

Try to tumble, life's a tumble
Feel the stinging, I've been giving
Never ending, unrelenting

Heartbreak searing, always fearing
Never clearing, persevering
Sail on, sail on sailor


I work the seaways
The gale swept seaways

Past shipwrecked daughters
Of wicked waters
Uninspired, drenched and tired

Sail on, sail 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
