Row, row, row, row
Lads, you two come with me
We’ll set out to sea
Take my advice on
Handlines and the catch
High waves we will ride
That westerly tide
Foreboding skies on the horizon
Rowing this never ending ocean
Growing despair keeps me in motion
Oars groan as waves grow ever stronger
Boards moan, we won’t keep up much longer
In this gale
All to no avail
On and on we sail
Through rain, wind and waves
Myself and the knaves
Foresee a cursed night
Shoreless is our woe
The waves beat our prow
But I will not bow
And lose this worst fight
Till the first light
Rowing this never ending ocean
Growing despair keeps me in motion
Oars groan as waves grow ever stronger
Boards moan, we won’t keep up much longer
In this gale
All to no avail
On and on we sail
Fighting tooth and nail
Longer in this gale
One whole day and night he rows
Strokes unyielding he bestows
Upon the lads all hope forlorn
His only vow to brave the storm
Rowing this never ending ocean
Growing despair keeps me in motion
Oars groan as waves grow ever stronger
Boards moan, we won’t keep up much longer
Rowing this slowly calming ocean
Knowing that I gave my devotion
To the best
That’s my final quest
Lay me down to rest
