Go To Sea

When you're Twenty-One and North of the border the chance is

The Military Man will come and offer a hand and advances

Go to sea boy

Go to sea boy, go to sea

With the shipyards sunk on the Clyde

And the junk life is dangerous

With a pocket of woes in this perishing hole it's so obvious

Go to sea boy, go to sea boy

Go to sea boy, go to sea

Then you'll sail away and we'll teach you a trade

That's for life

It's only killing but there's nobody willing

So we're asking on the Clyde

When you're Twenty-One and North of the border the chance is

You'll sail away to a life in the dirt then advances
