I've been overseas for almost a year
Any time now precious land should appear
I've been away from my lover so long
Look there matey, but I could be wrong
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Listen here matey, in an hour or so
We'll be sitting on the land that we know
We'll leave this ship and run to outstretched arms
And soon we'll be living with our lover's charms
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Listen here matey, in an hour or so
We'll be sitting on the land that we know
We'll leave this ship and run to outstretched arms
And soon we'll be living with our lover's charms
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
Oh land ahoy, land ahoy, sailor boy
(Ahoy land ahoy, papa's toy l'ahoy)
