Rockin' On The Water Songtext
von Shanneyganock

Since I′ve been away, I gotta say
It really isn't workin′ for me
I've been all around about, and I finally figured out
Nothin' in life ever comes free
So I paid my dues, I sang the blues
But it′s not how it′s gonna be
I'm headin′ back to the island
Smell the salt air and rekindle some old memories

Like when we were rockin' on water
We were breathin′ fresh air
In her daddy's leaky dory, and I′m sticking to my story, sir, that's why we were late
And I swear, out there on the ocean
We didn't wanna be found
When we were rockin′ on the water
Makin′ things a little hotter back in Newfoundland


Every day it's all work and no play
Just gotta get my piece of the pie
Now that I realize it′s just a big disguise
It's all just pie in the sky
You know what it means, I gotta follow my dreams
Gonna pack my bags and then
Head on back to the island
Back to the ocean, back to those memories again

Like when we were rockin′ on water
We were breathin' fresh air
In her daddy′s leaky dory, and I'm sticking to my story, sir, that's why we were late
And I swear, out there on the ocean
We didn′t wanna be found
When we were rockin′ on the water
Makin' things a little hotter back in Newfoundland

Like when we were rockin′ on water
We were breathin' fresh air
In her daddy′s leaky dory, and I'm sticking to my story, sir, that′s why we were late
And I swear, out there on the ocean
We didn't wanna be found
When we were rockin' on the water
Makin′ things a little hotter back in Newfoundland


We were rockin′ on water
Feelin' fancy and free
We′re livin' nice and easy, it might sound a little cheesy, but it′s all right for me
And I swear, out there on the ocean
We didn't wanna be found
When we were rockin′ on the water
Makin' things a little hotter back in Newfoundland
When we were rockin' on the water
Makin′ things a little hotter back in Newfoundland
