Description
From Kiel we sailed in wind and rain
The grey seas cold, the work the same
Hands on the line, eyes to the mast
Another watch, another blast
Heave-ho, lads, keep her trim and tight
Steel on the waves through the day and night
When the orders come, we will fight our way
And home will wait for another day
Coal dust black on a sweating face
Salt on the coat, in every place
Bosun’s voice cuts through the roar
“Line’s made fast—now scrub the floor!”
Heave-ho, lads, keep her trim and tight
Steel on the waves through the day and night
When the orders come, we will fight our way
And home will wait for another day
From Narvik ice to Biscay’s foam
Each port we see feels less like home
We man the guns, we clear the deck
And dream of beer with every check
Heave-ho, lads, keep her trim and tight
Steel on the waves through the day and night
When the orders come, we will fight our way
And home will wait for another day
