Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Smelt the briny ocean when he was seventeen
Just said goodbye 'cause sailors never cry
When the love ashore became not more than just a point of dead
Try to realized the words the old man said
[Verse 2]
Son, you'll never live in clover
But the last word's up to you
If you really thought it over
Do what you must do
[Verse 3]
Daddy, I don't know if I'm wrong
Dad, but it's there where I belong
Daddy, once I'll be back to see
If at home it's really better like you said to me
[Verse 4]
He sailed across the seven seas from England to Japan
He saw all the places in the world
But somewhere in his heart there was a start of yearnin' for
The land he left behind that he adored
[Verse 5]
Son, you'll never live in clover
But the last word's up to you
If you really thought it over
Do what you must do
[Verse 6]
Daddy, I know that I was wrong
Dad, I'm comin' back where I belong
Daddy, those words you used to say
That at home it's really better, feel it every day
[Verse 7]
Daddy, I know that I was wrong
Dad, I'm comin' back where I belong
Daddy, those words you used to say
That at home it's really better, feel it every day
Daddy, I know that I was wrong
Dad, I'm comin' back where I belong
Daddy
