we've travelled far and wide from the east to the west side i'm sick of the sight of the good old boys i'm ready to come home this rickety pile of wood is my seafaring home but i know that it's time to return i'm making my way back home the captain is a bastard with a cat of nine tailed whip if I had the stones, there would be mutiny on this ship i've seen enough of shorelines, i've seen what God has made my heart belongs in Liverpool where i can still get laid in the name of what is holy and in the name of what is true this won't be my final story, not with miles left in these shoes and in the name of my own mother and in the name of Liverpool ten minutes after i get home, i'll wish i was far away from you the crew all smell like salt mines and the ship smells like a fish my nostrils are all covered up lord grant me this one wish shirtless days and lonely nights with enemies and friends lazy bones everyday it drives you round the bend Songtextethe drinking can get numbing when the songs are all old hat you know the food is awful when the highlight's the ship's cat be still my lonely heartbeats, they call me home too soon to the restless streets of liverpool where i'll come back to you so i swallow my pride, i burn the oil, i break my bones and yearn for soil i stand alone, a victory march, a sullen look and a broken heart i stand tall and dream on for you Aus Songtexte Mania
