Lyrics
COME ALONG
Words and Music by Sean Michael Mulligan

I've been out to sea for thousands of days
There's a band at the helm and a chorus at bay
Come along
Come along
It's a drunken good time, we've lost sight of the land
There's a brawly lit crew and a maiden at hand
There she was
Ooh, yes she was
But I've not seen her face
Please take me from this place
The crew never stops and there's no slowing down
Need to keep with the pace just to hang with this crowd
Come along
Come along
But I've not seen her face
Please take me from this place
And replace with this life
The lips and the eyes of the girl
No one can see
Just how good it can be in her world
The skipper insists that it's never too much
But the days get so long and I do miss the touch
Of the girl
Ooh, Of the girl
But I've not seen her face
Please take me from this place
And replace with this life
The lips and the eyes of the girl
No one can see
Just how good it can be in her world
Replace with this life
The lips and the eyes of the girl
No one can see
Just how good it can be in her world
Come along
Come along
Come along
Come along
