WHEN
When you want to roam the world and leave the apron strings at home,
When you’d like to drop your girl and leave the booze alone,
When you’re facing storms aplenty and need to make a lee,
Well my son, just think of going to sea.
When you’re in a dead-end job and you need another line,
When you’re going nowhere fast and wasting precious time,
When you’re feeling low and desperate to be free,
Then my lad, I’d wander off to sea.
When you’re getting in the way and maybe tired of life,
When progress is on hold and you’re putting up with strife,
When you’re in the mood, to take a tip from me,
Then my son, you should go to sea.
When you need to feel fresh air and build your self-esteem,
When you want to be a cog in a total different team,
When you feel the wanderlust - I think that you’ll agree,
Well young man, its time to go to sea.
When you’re like a lighthouse in the desert - bright but of no use,
When all you have is enemies and want to call a truce,
When you turn a deaf one to your elders, and buck a guilty plea,
Please my boy why don’t you go to sea?
When you’re winding up your Dad and upsetting poor old Mother,
When you’re teasing little Sister and fighting elder Brother,
When you’re nothing but a pain and always on a spree,
Well my lad please listen, and run away to sea!
Joe
