"Shackleton" lyrics
There have been few
So we've been told
Who've been courageous, brave and bold
So we remember
What they have done
Just one of whom was Shackleton
To the Antarctic
He led his team
Twenty-two crewmen back in '15
His ship, Endurance
So long to thee
Crushed in the ice of the Weddell Sea
Shackleton
Dread and fear, you cast away
Shackleton
Your courage and strength resound today
The crew marooned for quite a while
Four long months on Elephant Isle
Shackleton marched a thousand miles
Till hands and feet turned blue
To save that twenty-two
Shackleton
Dread and fear, you cast away
Shackleton
Your courage and strength resound today
Shackleton
Never question what to do
So we've been told
Who've been courageous, brave and bold
So we remember
What they have done
Just one of whom was Shackleton
To the Antarctic
He led his team
Twenty-two crewmen back in '15
His ship, Endurance
So long to thee
Crushed in the ice of the Weddell Sea
Shackleton
Dread and fear, you cast away
Shackleton
Your courage and strength resound today
The crew marooned for quite a while
Four long months on Elephant Isle
Shackleton marched a thousand miles
Till hands and feet turned blue
To save that twenty-two
Shackleton
Dread and fear, you cast away
Shackleton
Your courage and strength resound today
Shackleton
Never question what to do
