Six Months in a Leaky Boat

歌詞

When I was a young boy, I wanted to sail around the world That's the life for me Living on the sea Spirit of a sailor, circumnavigates the globe The lust of a pioneer Will acknowledge no frontier I remember you by, thunderclap in the sky Lightning flash, tempers flare 'Round the horn if you dare I just spent six months in a leaky boat Six months in a leaky boat Aotearoa, rugged individual Glisten like a pearl At the bottom of the world The tyranny of distance didn't stop the cavalier So why should it stop me I'll conquer and stay free Ah, c'mon all you lads, let's forget and forgive There's a world to explore Tales to tell back on shore I just spent six months in a leaky boat Lucky just to keep afloat Ship-wrecked love can be cruel, don't be fooled by her kind There's a wind in my sails Will protect and prevail I just spent six months in a leaky boat Nothing to it leaky boat
