Sometime in October we sailed from England's shore When we sailed into a raging storm like I never ever seen before And all of the crew they were brave men but the captain he was braver and he said "Never mind the ship me boys There's none of us here can save her" Let her go down Swim for your lives Swim for your children swim for your wives Let her go down Let her go down Songtexte Lost in the open ocean there was some of the crew and me while the captain steered our wounded ship to the bottom of an angry sea And with his dying breath we all heard him say "It's just the fortune of sailor" and he said "Never mind the ship me boys There's none of us here can save her" chorus He wondered if his shipmates were ready to just pray and give in so he called their names out one by one but there was no one else around but him He saw the ship go down the fading light and he knew that they could have saved her He said "The captain lied when the captain cried 'There's none of us here can save her' " chorus Swim for your lives Swim for your children swim for your wives Let her go down Let her go down Swim for your lives Aus Songtexte Mania
