Made me a man from crush-ed rock Gave me a shepherd for my flock Made me a woman in my sleep Gave me a garden, for to keep But I'm going on a trip, In your magic ship, On your swirling sea, Where no one can bother me And I swear I'll be going Going back to sea Yes I swear I'll be going Going back to sea Make me an ark from gopher wood, Take me the raven and the dirt, And let it rain for fourteen nights, Until the earth has found it's sight 'Cause I'm going on a trip, In your magic ship, On your swirling sea, Where no one can bother me And I swear I'll be going Going back to sea Yes I swear I'll be going Going back to sea Find the dirt The resting place Send the raven Just in case And let one bring an olive leaf So we might find what's underneath No more going on a trip No more little magic ship No more raging swirling sea No more will anyone bother me But I swear I'll be going Going back to sea Yes I swear I'll be going Going back to sea
