Sail on, Sailor

I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on, sailor

I race the water, 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, but oh do I wail

Seldom stumble, never crumble, try to tumble
Life's a rumble
Feel the stinging I've been given
Never ending, unrelenting
Heartbreak searing, always fearing
Never caring, persevering
Sail on, sail on, sailor

I work the seaway (Work the seaway)
The gale-swept seaway (Gale-swept seaway)
Past shipwrecked daughters (Shipwrecked daughters)
Of wicked waters
Uninspired, drenched and tired
Wail on, wail 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
