Sailors Boots |
| If I had been born two hundred years ago |
| I would have been a sailor, and sailing I would go |
| I’d sail around the Capes and across the seven seas and then back home |
| If I had been born two hundred years ago |
| And I would know the waters, and the waters would know me |
| I would cut across the waves, and be as happy as can be |
| I’d be landless, I’d be loveless, I’d be flight and fancy-free |
| I would know the waters, and the waters would know me |
| And when I think about the place and time where I was born |
| I wonder if the hands of faith had slipped and placed me wrong |
| ‘cause there are ships I could have sailed and sailors boots I could have worn |
| When I think about the place and time where I was born |
| But the ocean is still out there, magnificent and wide |
| She’s got open arms to hold me, and endless space to hide |
| And the only things that hold me back are things I hold inside |
| The ocean is still out there, magnificent and wide |
| Sailing I should go |
