The Sleepless Sailor - Kate Rusby

I once was a sailor, a young man and brave

Da da dum, da da dum dee

My nights were once sleepless,

My peace I would crave

Carry me home to the sea

Da da dum day, da da dum dee

Drift away sailor boys on the deep sea

Worry no more for you’re safe now with me Rest in my arms and my sweet melody

One night as I’m stood on the deck in the rain

Da da dum, da da dum dee

I heard a sweet voice and she’s singing my name

Carry me back to the sea

Chorus

Oh rock me so gently now ocean so deep

Da da dum, da da dum dee

I wish I was back, cause I think I can’t sleep

Carry me home to the sea

Chorus
