In 15 and 93
We headed out to sea
Our crew it was 20 men strong
Cathay held our destiney
Spices and silk and tea
Our voyage would prove to be long
And with no remorse
We plotted our course
Around old Cape Horn we were bound
But the sea was enraged
At our arrogant display
She'd see to it we'd all be drowned
And it's haul boys haul
Keep sailing 'round the horn, no passin' through the foam
Hual boys hual
Forever we're haulin' for home
The wind blew in squalls and the waves came in walls
They crashed down with on the deck
But the captain said hual so we did as we're told
We had to trust him not to wreck
And as I stand here I swear to ya dear
How we cracked up our hull on the shores
You can still hear their screams like a terrible dream
As the ocean she claimed all our souls
And it's haul boys haul
Keep sailing 'round the horn, no passin' through the foam
Hual boys hual
Forever we're haulin' for home
Five hundred years
I've been sailing here
Maning this line with my ghost
We sailed through the storm
Though our riggin' is torn
We know that we've got to be close
And the Captain stands back
His eyes faded black
Shoutin' commands at the crew
On the darkest of nights
When the storm wins the fight
Perhaps you'll be joining us too
And it's haul boys haul
Keep sailing 'round the horn, no passin' through the foam
Hual boys hual
Forever we're haulin' for home
And it's haul boys haul
Keep sailing 'round the horn, no passin' through the foam
Hual boys hual
Forever we're haulin' for home
Forever we're haulin' for home
Hual boys hual
Hual boys hual
Hual boys hual
Hual boys hual
