Put Me On A Boat

Put me on a ship
Headed for the Caribbean
I'm all so tired of it
All the rain and snow I'm seeing
Yeah put me on a boat
Headed anywhere but cold old home

Yeah put me on them gales
Somewhere in the mid-Atlantic
Hoist them Southern sails
Make the Northern winds run frantic
Put me on a boat
Headed anywhere but cold old home

Send me on my way
Just light the wick and fire it
I could've been somebody
But somehow became a pirate
Yeah put me on a boat
Headed anywhere but cold old hom

Send me to the sea
With any navy you could summon
Set my spirit free
Just get me far away from Dublin
Yeah put me on a boat
Headed anywhere but cold old home
