I'm an old man on the sea
Sailed the Straits alone, my ship and me
Wait each day for her last call
The night will come and she will take it all
Take me where the winds have blown
On an endless voyage home
Where the Albatross has flown
Swabbed the decks, both near and far
Around the cape, my mate, I'm a old Jack tar
Fought with Nelson side by side
He's just a man with wits and some time to bide
Take me where the winds have blown
On an endless voyage home
Where the Albatross has flown
Just an old man on the sea
Sailed the Straits alone, my ship and me
Wait each day for her last call
Night will come and she will take it all
Take me where the winds have blown
On an endless voyage home
Where the Albatross has flown
