Crown my desire, fulfill my bliss
A pretty young girl and a jug of this
All of my sorrows are past and fled
Until I'm in my grave and long dead
Those pretty young girls come out in flocks
With short-legged drawers and long frilled locks
And all of the girls will spend our way
We'll not see more until another day
Thar show blows!
One for the road!
Leave my mark in a place like this
I keep my distance at a sailor's pitch
Many a thousand miles are behind me
A place to call home is the open sea
Thar be no place like home
What's left behind
Is what I carry with me
A castaway in insanity
Seal my fate as I take the piss
Destined to roam, no place to miss
More miles to go
One for the road
Steady as she goes
One for the road
A pretty young girl and a jug of this
All of my sorrows are past and fled
Until I'm in my grave and long dead
Those pretty young girls come out in flocks
With short-legged drawers and long frilled locks
And all of the girls will spend our way
We'll not see more until another day
Thar show blows!
One for the road!
Leave my mark in a place like this
I keep my distance at a sailor's pitch
Many a thousand miles are behind me
A place to call home is the open sea
Thar be no place like home
What's left behind
Is what I carry with me
A castaway in insanity
Seal my fate as I take the piss
Destined to roam, no place to miss
More miles to go
One for the road
Steady as she goes
One for the road
