carry the water 'round your feet
trampl'd roses rushing past
how'd I get o'er you so fast
carry the water 'round your feet
Shine your lantern out into the night
shine your lantern out into the night
listen to the ocean tide
and what it brings from far and wide
shine your lantern out into the night
Remember what they told you when you left
remember what they told you when you left
remember what they told you when
they sacrific'd your only friend
remember what they told you when you left
Keep that promise that you made back home
keep that promise that you made back home
standing on that railway track
you told her one day you'd be back
oh keep that promise that you made back home
Sing this song when you can't run no more
sing this song when you can't run no more
rest your weary bones at night
and like a sacrificial rite
sing this song when you know what it's for
