A Life on the Ocean Wave

A life on the ocean wave!
A home on the rolling deep!
Where the scattered waters rave,
and the winds their revels keep!
A life on the ocean wave!
A home on the rolling deep!
Where the scattered waters rave,
and the winds their revels keep!
Like an eagle caged I pine,
on this dull unchanging shore.
Oh give me the flashing brine!
The spray and the tempest roar!
A life on the ocean wave!
A home on the rolling deep!
Where the scattered waters rave,
and the winds their revels keep!
The winds, the winds,
the winds their revels keep!
The winds, the winds,
the winds their revels keep!

The land is no longer in view,
the clouds have begun to frown
But with a stout vessel and crew
we'll say let the storm come down!
The land is no longer in view,
the clouds have begun to frown
But with a stout vessel and crew
we'll say let the storm come down!
And the song of our hearts shall be,
while the winds and waters rave.
A life on the heaving sea!
A home on the bounding wave!
A life on the ocean wave!
A home on the rolling deep!
Where the scattered waters rave,
and the winds their revels keep!
The winds, the winds,
the winds their revels keep!
The winds, the winds,
the winds their revels keep!
