Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was a windless night when you left the ship
You never were a steady bold one
I gave my hand, oh, but you did slip
I'm a living man, and you're a cold one
Haul away, haul away for home
[Verse 2]
My love is as fair as a girl can be
My wedding ring's a heavy, gold one
Now you lie alone in the deep, dark sea
I'm a living man, and you're a cold one
Haul away, haul away for home
[Verse 3]
The morning brings, Lord, a fresh young breeze
To fill our sails and end the doldrums
Our lucky ship speeds across the sea
I'm a living man, and you're a cold one
So, haul away, haul away for home
