Wave Over Wave

Oh me name's Able Rodgers, a share man am I

On a three masted schooner from Twillingate Isle

I've been the world over north, south, east, and west

But the middle of nowhere wheres' I likes it best

CHORUS:

Where its wave over wave, sea over bow

I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow

Theres no other life for a sailor like me

And to sail the salt sea boys, sail the sea

There's no other life but to sail the salt sea

Well I leave my wife lonely ten months of the year

For she built me a home and raised my children there

She never come out to bid farewell to me

Or ken why a sailor must sail the salt sea

CHORUS

The work it is hard and the hours are long

But my spirit is willing, my back it is strong

And when the works over the whisky will pour

We'll dance with the girls upon some foreign shore

I've sailed the world over for decades or more

And oft times I wonder what I do it for

I dont know the answer its pleasure and pain

But with life to live over I'd do it again

CHORUS
