Skinny Lister - If the Gaff Dont Let Us Down lyrics

rate me

I miss my love so dearly

I miss my home sweet home

I wish that you could hear me

I’d let my plan be known

That we sail away tomorrow

God speed me to your side

Raise the anchor up, boys

And bid this land goodbye

The Atlantic lay between us but won’t keep us from each other

On the early hour high tide I’ll be sailing to my lover

Sail away tomorrow back to where my heart does lie

I’ll be dreaming of you England 50 days and 50 nights

Sail away tomorrow back to where my heart does lie

I’ll be dreaming of you England 50 days and 50 nights

Rough seas may lay before us but we’ll stay true to the rudder

We’ll keep on pushing forward ever closer to my lover

We’ll sail away tomorrow and won’t sleep a wink tonight

Let’s raise a glass to England she will be a pretty sight

We’ll sail away tomorrow and won’t sleep a wink tonight

Let’s raise a glass to England she will be a pretty sight

Oh ray up we’ll sing until the early morn

Let’s raise a glass to England she will be a pretty sight

Wind roar up and don’t be shy and fill the main sail full

May God bless this vessel from its mast head to its hull

We’ll sail away tomorrow back to dear old Deptford Town

Home again for Christmas if the gaff don’t let us down

We’ll sail away tomorrow back to dear old Deptford Town

Home again for Christmas if the gaff don’t let us down

Oh ray up we’ll sing until the early morn

Home again for Christmas if the gaff don’t let us down

Oh ray up we’ll sing until the early morn

Home again for Christmas if the gaff don’t let us down
