Verse 1:
When I was a young boy, I wanted to sail 'round the world.
That's the life for me, living on the sea.
Spirit of a sailor, circumnavigates the globe.
The lust of a pioneer, will acknowledge no frontier.
I remember you by thunderclap in the sky.
Lightning flash, tempers flare 'round the horn if you dare.
I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Lucky just to keep afloat.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Verse 2:
Aotearoa, rugged individual,
Glisten like a pearl at the bottom of the world.
The tyranny of distance didn't stop the cavalier,
So why should it stop me?
I'll conquer and stay free.
Ah, come on, all you lads.
Let's forget and forgive.
There's a world to explore,
Tales to tell back on shore.
I just spent six months in a leaky boat,
Six months in a leaky boat.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Break
Verse 3:
Ship-wrecked love can be cruel.
Don't be fooled by her kind.
There's a wind in my sails, will protect and prevail.
I just spent six months in a leaky boat.
Nothing to it, leaky boat.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Vamp:
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Da-da-daaaaaaaaaaa.
