It was a very long time ago
We set sail, on a one man boat
And all the while we go, stories etched out
On the waters flow
John did not know his name
And Matthew spoke of his feeble frame
"My Luke! The navigator"
Well he drew Mark's finger towards the equator
And I, I could not wait for you to see
And I, I could not wait for you to hear the sounds of the ocean's water
Crashing against the headland
And the earth congratulating the mainland
Ayy, oh, ayy, oh
Ayy, oh, ayy, oh
Since weβve been gone so long
I canβt recall the words to my own songs
The crusaders say Iβm doing fine
And the guitarβs roaring down like a fine wine
The voice, the voice of an angel
Conjured up from the depths of hell
One thing I forgot to ask them
Was when did this boat become so ecclesiastical
Ayy, oh, ayy, oh
Ayy, oh, ayy, oh
John did not know his name
And Matthew spoke of his feeble frame
"My Luke! The navigator"
Well he drew Mark's finger towards the equator
And I, I could not wait for you to see
And I, I could not wait for you to hear the sounds of the ocean waters
Crashing against the headland, and the earth congratulating the mainland
Ayy, oh, ayy, oh
Ayy, oh, ayy, oh
