CHey there Mr. Sailor man
FI see you've sailed the seven seas

[Verse 1]

Hey there Mr. Sailor man

I see you've sailed the seven seas

Is there a bit of wisdom

If you can take a minute,

He said when the waves are crashing

And the sea is scattered 'round

Our hope is in the gallows

And it seems no peace is found

We'll pull our strength together

And we'll fight to sail along

Our will to carry on

Look into our eyes

And know together we are strong
