Rollin' Of the Sea - The Irish Descendants
23/09/2002
Intro
Verse
Oh I hear the fifes a playin' high above the misty headlines.
A-hum the drums are drummin' down the long and briny shore.
My heart knows what they're sayin' get in step and follow me boy.
It's a song that they've been singin' for a thousand years or more.
Intro
Chorus
Oh the rollin' of the sea, is beckonin' to me.
I say come my son, I'll show you things, you've never seen before.
Come set your spirit free, on the winds of history.
Hoist your sails, and charge a course, and go out and explore.
Oh the rollin' of the sea, is beckonin' to me.
Come home to Newfoundland and Labrador-or.

Bridge
Well I've always been a rover, I'd never settled down.
I searched the whole world over, for things I never found.
Now I hear the ocean callin' with a voice so loud and strong.
Come on back to Newfoundland, that's where you belong.
