Tony Norwell - Will She Ever Sail Again? lyrics

Will She Ever Sail Again? Will she ever sail again - that clipper sleek and fine? Built at Dumbarton on the Clyde in eighteen sixty nine. Will she ever sail again - to Sydney or Shanghai? Fully crewed and stored and then - with sails set full and by. Will she ever sail again - that ship with perfect line? Or will young Nannie chase Tam then - for all the rest of time? Will she ever sail again - under a Moodie, Woodget or Moore? With a crew of twenty one or so - but work for many more! Will she ever sail again - that clipper sleek and fine? A faster sailing ship than her has seldom crossed the Line! Will she ever sail again - or forever stay? Hard aground on Greenwich Pier - forever and a day! Will she ever sail again - to Stormalong Forty South? From Tristan to the Circular Quay - and back to the old Thames Will she ever sail again - where there Or will Linton Will she ever sail again - or forever stay? Hard aground on Greenwich Pier - forever and a day? Shades of Tam O May she always sail again - behind Nannie - that fair young witch. Will she ever sail again - that ship with perfect line? Looked at from bowsprit on and then - from aft - she Will she ever sail again - that ship I love so true? For now she Will she ever sail again - that ship that Brought home to Greenwich on the Thames in nineteen fifty three?
