<< Long Ships >>
--- Barclay James Harvest
Long ships sailing on a windy day
Muddy waters to the sea
Blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl
Stood waving me goodbye
'Neath the dragon's prow lies
The Devil and the deep blue sea
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling...
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling sea
Elrond by the sail and Legolas the helm
Mighty oars raise to the sky
A hundred men or more
And mines below our feet
All are pledged to fight
For the warlords or to die
The north winds bite so cold
With tales of grief and woe
The storm clouds gather to the east
Uncharted course is set
As we head for the sun
To the green, rich isles
In the middle of the rolling sea
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling...
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling sea
The time and tide flow by
Like dreams below our feet
The journey lingers in deceit
The god's relentless cry
To set our spirits free
Still lingers in the souls close to defeat
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling...
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling sea
It's thirty days or more
Since we last sighted land
The sails are torn and the oars now weak
The green land far away
Proud heads bowed in their grief
Lord Odin take our bodies
To the deep blue sea
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling...
Woman it's all right
You were born to be free
Free to be borne by the wind and the tides
Across the rolling sea
