"Haul Away" lyrics

"Haul Away"

We're running down a stormy sea and rolling through the thunder
'Way haul, away. Well haul away, Joe
It's ev'ry man aloft my boys or we'll be driven under
'Way haul, away. Well, haul away, Joe

'Way haul away
We're bound for better weather
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe

For seven days and seven nights we've labored to exhaustion
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe
But now the breeze is from the East
We'll come about for Boston
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe

'Way haul away
We're bound for better weather
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe

East wind bring us home

The ragged heavens open up
We sound the jubilation
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe
The setting sun's a beacon, boys, a sign of our salvation
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe

'Way haul away
We're bound for better weather
'Way haul away. Well, haul away, Joe

East wind bring us home
