Song language: English
Salt Fare North Sea |
Roll on, roll off |
With these words I drown |
Topmast secured |
Hatches battened down |
Sometimes I think |
It must be different on land |
But from the mast I can only see tyrants |
Still in command |
Fish and chip supper |
Battered, no bones |
Hung, drawn and quartered |
Drifting alone |
One thousand lashes |
For the Age of Reason |
Salt for your wounds |
When the cod’s in season |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Salt fare, North Sea |
We reach the horizon |
And sail over the edge |
Drunk on our memories |
More sober than a judge |
I’m wasting time |
That I can’t afford |
I know I’d die on the gallows |
Before I’d die of being bored |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Salt fare, North Sea |
Drifting alone, drifting alone, drifting alone |
Salt fare, North Sea |
