Folkknot - A Shanty for the Sallowed Gromets Lyrics
Official




Forward, men
Farewell your sons and your daughters
Forward, men
For now we must away
Forward, men
Farewell your sons and your daughters
Forward, men
For now we must away
So hush my dear, my little fawn
I won't be gone for long
When sparrow cries his morning song
I'll arrive at the break of dawn

Come now, men
Banyan's over, anchors are up
Come now, men
Let's see you earn your pay
Come now, men
Banyan's over, anchors are up
Come now, men
Let's see you earn your pay
The salty sea may rise and crash
To plant you on your ass
But stand again and join your men
And man the ropes you wrench

Hark, now men
If you still fancy air-breathing
Hark, now men
We live or die here on this day
So when the storms come steady fast
And lightning cracks the mast
Put bow to shore and man the oars
Until you can row no more
If fingers bleed, bones are sore
And you're frozen to your core
We just might make it through the squall
And arrive at the break of dawn
