Skinny Lister If The Gaff Don't Let Us Down
I miss my love so dearly
I miss my home sweet home
I wish that you could hear me
I'd let my plan be known
That we sail away tomorrow
God speed me to your side
Raise the anchor up boys
And bid this land goodbye
The Atlantic lay between us but won't keep us from each other
On the early hour high tide I'll be sailing to my lover
Sail away tomorrow back to where my heart does lie
I'll be dreaming of you England 50 days and 50 nights
Sail away tomorrow back to where my heart does lie
I'll be dreaming of you England 50 days and 50 nights
Rough seas may lay before us but we'll stay true to the rudder
We'll keep on pushing forward ever closer to my lover
We'll sail away tomorrow and won't sleep a wink tonight
Let's raise a glass to England she will be a pretty sight
We'll sail away tomorrow and won't sleep a wink tonight
Let's raise a glass to England she will be a pretty sight
Oh ray and up we'll sing until the early morn
Lets raise a glass to England she will be a pretty sight
Wind roar up and don't be shy and fill the main sail full
May God bless this vessel from its mast head to its hull
We'll sail away tomorrow back to dear old Deptford Town
Home again for Christmas if the gaff don't let us down
We'll sail away tomorrow back to dear old Deptford Town
Home again for Christmas if the gaff don't let us down
Oh ray and up we'll sing until the early morn
Home again for Christmas if the gaff don't let us down
Oh ray and up we'll sing until the early morn
Home again for Christmas if the gaff don't let us down
