Round The Cape

(albüm: Cures What Ails Ya - 2020)

Well we're going round the cape, gold and shores to find
900 miles of wind and waves smashing up the sides
We're going round the cape, there is no other way
For trade, and king, and countrymen, we'll brave the foam and spray

So tell my love that I'll be back someday
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away

I left my home and land to sail a clipper ship
Into the parts of my own map that barely have been writ
I must be out my mind to leave England in my wake
But I'll get that silver in my ear, we're going round the cape

So tell my love that I'll be back someday
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away

It's a long way home, but many miles to go
There's a gale that's trying to drag us all below
And I long to dream of any better fate
But what awaits the brave around the cape?

I heard the sailors say, "By God, you must be mad
There's waves as tall as houses and the gales'll knock you flat
And when the storm has fled and the fog is thick as mud
It's pray for your deliverance and pray you rightly should."

So tell my love that I'll be back someday
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away

So tell my love that I'll be back someday
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away

Rock and roll a
(Rock and roll a-)
Rock and roll away
