Operation Mincemeat the Musical - Sail on, Boys Lyrics


The song is written by David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson, and Zoë Roberts.

"Find a girl and build a home, son,"
So my father said to me
But the winds, they bear me onwards
And they call me to the sea

Not for me the plough and furrow
Not for me the feather bed
Not for me the farmer’s daughter
To the waves my heart is wed

CHORUS:
If it’s down, it’s down together
If it’s up, it’s up as one
So sail on, boys,
Through stormy weather
Soon the journey will be done

Lift your hearts to the horizon,
Leave your fears upon the shore,
This one life is for the living,
And we ask for nothing more

CHORUS:
If it’s down, it’s down together
If it’s up, it’s up as one
So sail on, boys,
Through stormy weather
Soon the journey will be done
