Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, Capitán de Elcano was once a sailor bold
He joined the fearless Fernão Magalhães
When five ships sailed to unknown lands, two hundred thirty souls
Were all keen to join the mightiest of quests
[PreChorus]
My sailor's heart runs ever faster
Canvas set, we're homeward bound
We were roamin' 'round and 'round in quest for gold
Woo-hoo
Heave away, we're going faster
We were roamin' all around
But returning home will pay us thousandfold
[Chorus]
My sailor's heart
Woo-hoo
Set the sails, we're homeward bound
My sailor's heart
Woo-hoo
Treasure nowhere to be found
Heave away, we're home at last
Yardy-ho, ahoy, avast
My sailor's heart is homeward bound
[Verse 2]
San Antonio's Mutiny had cast a shadow soon
Victoria and crew still onward bound
Concepción y Santiago, swallowed by the waves
And the Trinidad was nowhere to be found
[Verse 3]
Capitán Sebastián de Elcano survived with eighteen mates
But hunger and the scurvy took their toll
He died in 1526, no nourishment nor gold
But returning home would pay him thousandfold
[PreChorus]
My sailor's heart runs ever faster
Canvas set, we're homeward bound
We were roamin' 'round and 'round in quest for gold
Woo-hoo
Heave away, we're going faster
We were roamin' all around
But returning home will pay us thousandfold
[Chorus]
My sailor's heart
Woo-hoo
Set the sails, we're homeward bound
My sailor's heart
Woo-hoo
Treasure nowhere to be found
Heave away, we're home at last
Yardy-ho, ahoy, avast
My sailor's heart is homeward bound
[Bridge]
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
[Chorus]
My sailor's heart
Woo-hoo
Set the sails, we're homeward bound
My sailor's heart
Woo-hoo
Treasure nowhere to be found
Heave away, we're home at last
Yardy-ho, ahoy, avast
My sailor's heart is homeward bound
