A song about the Seafarers of the Sailing Era.

lyrics

In Quest of Adventure

Intro.

Verse 1
We left our homes, many months ago, wondering if we’d get back. Jamaica was the course we set, deep in an emerald sea.

Chorus
We sailed the ocean blue, with treasure on our minds.

Verse 2
In Kingston Town, supplies were gained, a crew shanghaied and roped. Around the ‘Horn’ we sailed with fear, the wind did chill the bone.

B Section
Oh, would we live or die Oh, would we live or die.
Instrumental

Break

Chorus

Verse 3
A Portuguese, from the ‘crow’ was spied, her sails deflated and spent. The morn’, we hoped, would bring us gold and jewels beyond compare.

Chorus

Verse 4
The cannon were primed, the men well armed,
We’d manoeuvre and make our strike.
Alongside we pounded her mercilessly, boarded and won the day.

Chorus

Verse 5
The treasure, at last, was ours alone, so to Juan Fernandez we sped. A safe harbour, fresh water, food and game, No Naval ship would find.

Chorus

Verse 6
At last the sail was set for home, our deeds would bring renown. Back there we’d live the life of Kings, A rovin’, no more we’d go.

Chorus
