I sit here on the rocky shores
Of Ogunquit Beach
I dream of days of that have yet to come
And lands I've yet to see
Do you know what it's like
To have a rover's heart?
Where life is just a journey that
You cannot wait to start?

Chorus:
Grab a pint and sing along
Dancing all night to the traveller's song
Hey!

I sit here on the rocky shores
Of Ogunquit Beach
And if I listen close enough
The waves they seem to speak
The lure of the open road
Is more than I can bare
Whatever ties me to this land
I just don't seem to care

Chorus

I sit here on the rocky shores
Of Ogunquit Beach
I listen to the blowing winds
And what they have to teach
We all have our place and time
It's good that I know mine
With spring in the air and a pack on my back
Yeah lifes looking fine!

Chorus

I sit here on the rocky shores
Of Ogunquit Beach
I'm off to see the world now
Please wish me God speed

I'm leaving everything I've known
In search of my own kin
Denying the heart's the greatest sin
So let the journey begin

Chorus
