Sailing, Sailing

Y'heave ho! My lads, the wind blows free,
A pleasant gale is on our lee,
And soon across the ocean clear
Our gallant barque shall bravely steer.
But ere we part from Freedom's shore tonight,
A song we'll sing from home and beauty bright.

Then here's to the sailor,
And here's to the soldier, too
Hearts will beat for him
Upon the waters blue.
Sailing, sailing, over the bounding Main.

For many a stormy wind shall blow
Ere Jack comes home again
Sailing, sailing, over the bounding Main,
For many a stormy wind shall blow
Ere Jack comes home again!
