History is reflected in the words of folk songs sung by some of our folk bands

A Life on the Ocean Wave - - A life on the ocean wave, - A-home on the rolling deep! - Where the scater'd waters rave, - And the winds their revels keep - Like an eagle caged I pine - On this dull, unchanging shore. - Oh give me the flashing brine, - The spray and the tempest's roar. - Refrain: - A life on the ocean wave, - A-home on the rolling deep! - Where the scater'd waters rave - And the winds their revels keep, - |: The winds,..... the winds... - The winds their revels...keep. :| 2. Once more on the deck I stand, - Of my own swift, gliding craft. - Set sail, farewell to land, - The gale follows fair abaft. - We shoot thro' the sparkling foam, - Like an ocean bird set free. - Like the ocean bird, our home, - We'll find far out on the sea.
