Old Blind Dogs - Rolling Home
Capo 2
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Call all hands to man the capstan
See the cable running clear
N.C.
Heave around and with the wheel, boys
For our homeland we must steer
[Chorus]
N.C.
Rolling home, rolling home
Rolling home across the sea
N.C.
Rolling home to Caledonia
Rolling home, dear land, to thee
[Verse 2]
From the Gpines of CCaliGfornia
And by Chile's endless Cstrand
We ha'e Dsailed the world twice Gover
Every Dport in every Gland
[Chorus]
Rolling home, Crolling Ghome
Rolling home across the Csea
Rolling Dhome to CaleGdonia
Rolling Dhome, dear land, to Gthee
[Verse 3]
And to all ye Cblaggard Gpirates
Who would chase us from the Cwaves
Heed ye Dwell that those who've Gtried us
Soon have Dfound their watery Ggraves
[Chorus]
Rolling home, Crolling Ghome
Rolling home across the Csea
Rolling Dhome to CaleGdonia
Rolling Dhome, dear land, to Gthee
[Verse 4]
We were boarded Cin JaGmaica
Where the Jolly Rodger Cflew
But our Dswords were hardly Gdrawn, boys
'Ere they Dtook a rosy Ghue
[Chorus]
Rolling home, Crolling Ghome
Rolling home across the Csea
Rolling Dhome to CaleGdonia
Rolling Dhome, dear land, to Gthee
[Verse 5]
We return with Cprecious Gcargo
And with bounty coined in Cgold
And our Dsweethearts will reGjoice, boys
For they Dlo'e their sailors Gbold
[Chorus]
Rolling home, Crolling Ghome
Rolling home across the Csea
Rolling Dhome to CaleGdonia
Rolling Dhome, dear land, to Gthee
[Chorus]
              N.C.
Rolling home, rolling home
Rolling home across the sea
N.C.
Rolling home to Caledonia
Rolling home, dear land, to thee
