G
Eamon swallowed anchor and stepped

Set seaboot down on cobblestone

And the terra firma tavern cast

Eamon went to sea for life the
day he turned fourteen
On a merchant cargo steamer

Nineteen times around the horn

Verse 5
G
Now Eamon headed inland 'til he
could not smell the sea
Where they'd never seen a boat,

And they dressed him in his
peacoat, pulled his seaboots on
Stitched him in his hammock and
Em
sent him sailing home
D
Sing fare thee
