Sail Round the World
I'm looking for a girl.
To sail with me.
To go for a whirl.
Out to sea.
Round the world we go.
She must show.
That she can.
Cook, swim and steer.
Like a sailer, off the beer.
Many things do I ask.
Are you up to the task?
No high heels or pretty frocks.
Sandals and wet socks.
Can you stand up in a gale?
Or, will you fail.
My right hand man, want to be.
Steadfast and strong.
Out at sea.
When evening draws nigh.
We sit and watch the sky.
Wondering, how it can be so good.
For you and I.
