Rockin' On the Water

Since I've been away, I gotta say It really isn't working for me I've been all around about, and I finally figured out Nothing in life ever comes free So I paid my dues, I sang the blues But it's not how it's gonna be I'm heading back to the island Smell the salt air and rekindle some old memories Like when we were rockin' on water We were breathing fresh air In her daddy's leaky dory, and I'm sticking to my story, sir, that's why we were late And I swear, out there on the ocean We didn't wanna be found When we were rockin' on the water Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland Every day it's all work and no play Just gotta get my piece of the pie Now that I realize it's just a big disguise It's all just pie in the sky You know what it means, I gotta follow my dreams Gonna pack my bags and then Head on back to the island, back to the ocean, back to those memories again Like when we were rockin' on water We were breathing fresh air In her daddy's leaky dory, and I'm sticking to my story, sir, that's why we were late And I swear, out there on the ocean We didn't wanna be found When we were rockin' on the water Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland Like when we were rockin' on water We were breathing fresh air In her daddy's leaky dory, and I'm sticking to my story, sir, that's why we were late And I swear, out there on the ocean We didn't wanna be found When we were rockin' on the water Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland We were rockin' on water Feeling fancy and free We're living nice and easy, it might sound a little cheesy, but it's all right for me And I swear, out there on the ocean We didn't wanna be found When we were rockin' on the water Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland When we were rockin' on the water Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland
