Pull by pull we shall haul away
The ropes are thick and strong
For days and days having past so far
The voyage still so long
The bottles still holding drips o’ life
Will soon be fading slow
For we’ll go down on rocky ground
Down to piercing cold

Miles and miles shall we go astray
Through the winds and test of time
Another time away, another day astray
Another day we’re going miles and miles

Pull by pull we shall haul away
And run the jaws of death
For weeks and weeks slinging on and on 
Never sleep nor rest
The kettles hold only rotten pest
Provisions long gone out 
Our bones becoming rotten flesh
We’re never to be found

Miles and miles shall we go astray
Through the winds and test of time
Another time away, another day astray
Another day we’re going miles and miles

We’re going miles and miles
Tricking our fate at times
We're going side by side
Sailing for miles and miles

We’re going miles and miles
Tricking our fate at times
We're going side by side
Sailing for miles and miles

We’re going miles and miles
Tricking our fate at times
We're going side by side
Sailing for miles and miles

Miles and miles shall we go astray
Through the winds and test of time
Another time away, another day astray
Another day we’re going miles and miles

Another day we’re going miles and miles
