Lyrics
(English folk tune, Lyrics by Katherine Davis)
Come over the sea in my boat with me,
The waves are breaking high,
And up and down we’re riding
Beneath a summer sky,
With a dash we’re off a-gliding
Our sails are flying free,
Yo ho, yo ho!
Away we go a-sailing on the sea.
Come over the sea in my boat with me,
To countries far away,
And up and down we’ll wander,
For many and many a day,
And when we weary of wandering,
Past many a foreign shore
Yo ho, yo ho!
Away we go a-sailing home once more.
