Listen up, listen all
Don’t you hear that little call?
Board the boat and set the sail
Ready to brave storms and hail
For captain, land and king
We’ll brave the great thunder’s ring
Through the lightning and the rain
We’re off to see land again
For you see . . .
I’m off to sea, off to sea
With all you lads and me
Off to sea, off to sea
Where adventure is awaiting me
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh the sights that we’ll see!
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh what a great crew that we’ll be
Listen up, listen well
This journey is going to be swell
Heading off to distant lands
It’ll go faster with many hands
Whether in peace or in war
It’s what we’re preparing for
Learning to fight and dance and sing
We must be prepared for everything
For you see . . .
I’m off to sea, off to sea
With all you lads and me
Off to sea, off to sea
Where adventure is awaiting me
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh the sights that we’ll see!
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh what a great crew that we’ll be
Listen up, listen high
The days shall go quickly by
Though they may be slow at first
We will soon quench our thirst
For adventure, knowledge and gold galore
Even though we’ll be back for more
But when that happens, I don’t know
Right now let’s just enjoy the show
For you see . . .
I’m off to sea, off to sea
With all you lads and me
Off to sea, off to sea
Where adventure is awaiting me
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh the sights that we’ll see!
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh what a great crew that we’ll be
Listen up, listen low
My grave could lie below
The blistering sun or flowing waves
Or even in an unmarked cave
If that were to happen to me
Just remember how you loved me
Don’t come searching for my bones
For I’ll be down with Davy Jones
For you see . . .
I’m off to sea, off to sea
With all you lads and me
Off to sea, off to sea
Where adventure is awaiting me
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh the sights that we’ll see!
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh what a great crew that we’ll be
Listen up, listen long
This is where I belong
If you don’t like it, then don’t mind me
I’ll be heading back out to sea
Where life is filled with adventure
And I shall be searching for treasure
But if you do, don’t worry and fret
Your love is something I shan’t forget
Though, you see . . .
I’m off to sea, off to sea
With all you lads and me
Off to sea, off to sea
Where adventure is awaiting me
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh the sights that we’ll see!
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh what a great crew that we’ll be
Oh, I’m off to sea, off to sea
With all you lads and me
Off to sea, off to sea
Where adventure is awaiting me
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh the sights that we’ll see!
Off to sea, off to sea
Oh what a great crew that we’ll be!
