Intro: 



Let me say this to you
        
I'll be steadfast and true
                      
And my love will never falter

    
The sea would crash about us
    
The waves would lash about us
                       
I'll be your rock of Gibraltar


Sometimes it's hard
          
And we're both caught off guard
                                
But there's nothing I would ever alter

               
The wind could howl round our ears
                     
For the next thousand years
                             
I'd still be your rock of Gibraltar
                            
Yes, I'll be your rock of Gibraltar
                           
Oh, I'll be your rock of Gibraltar

          
Well, the best thing I've done
       
Was to make you the one
                             
Who I'd walk with down to the altar

         
And you'd stand by me
      
And together we'd be
                             
That great, steady rock of Gibraltar
                                 
Yes, the great, steady rock of Gibraltar
                                
Oh, the great, steady rock of Gibraltar

          
Under the big yellow moon
   
On our honeymoon
                             
I took you on a trip to Malta

        
And all through the night
          
Well, You held me so tight
                             
Your great, steady rock of Gibraltar
                                 
Oh, your great, steady rock of Gibraltar
                                   
Yeah, Your great, steady rock of Gibraltar

          
Could the powers that be

Ever foresee
                                  
That things could so utterly alter?

        
All the plans that we laid
           
They could soon be betrayed
                            
Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar
                            
Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar
                                          
Yes, Betrayed like the rock of Gibra - - - ltar
