Verse 1
Seven summers it has been
Since he left me with the son
Seven seasons come and gone
While your grandson has grown
And he asks me "Ma, when will I be
The sailing man I feel in me?
When will the ocean be my home?"

Verse 2
What can I say to a tiny sailor bouncing on my knee?
How can I tell him the ocean's taken everything from me?
And I reply "Son, when I die
I'll be the waves crashing by your side
'Til that day you must remain at home"

Verse 3
Therе's no doubt that my boy will grow to live at sea
The shorе holds no love for him save of course for me
And though I've tried to keep him here
I know it's just a few more years
'Til the ocean calls my sailor home
And though I try to sway his mind
I know that land will be left bhind
As soon as your grandson is grown
As soon as your grandson he is grown
