The Real McKenzies Cross the Ocean Lyrics

Cross The Ocean
off to the harbour, under drungeon in the morning
i've got a press gang looking after me.
i'll awaken sometime on the morrow.
by then we'll be a league away te sea.

full sails, bouncing on the briney
asway about they spreay and windy all the day
tellin' by the swells an adventure's in the making
that's if i don't die upon the way

i'm the boy they pressed aboard and took me out to sea
the captain is a tyrant & he tells what to do
but the firstmate is a cutthroat, with a muntineering spark
he plans to take the captain and feed him to the sharks

i'll never forget the trungeons and the harbour in the morning
and what the navy did to me & pressed me on the sea
still alive and i survived so many years later
as big a buccaneer as i could claim to be

[Repeat This Chorus:]
full sails bounding on the briney
jolly rodgers flappin' score o' loaded '84's
many pretty treasures, lots of booty to be taken
the cannon and the cutlass on a rebel man o war.

i was the boy they trungeoned and they pressed me out to sea
but now i am the captain and i tell ye what te do
my firstmate is a cutthroat, a tarjack run askew
he plans to skin and get the king
and feed him to the crew

we are sailing from our homeland
cross the ocean, on the sea
for whatever reason be
we question all authority
