Pioneer
When I was a young boyI wanted to sail around the worldThat's the life for me, living on the seaSpirit of a sailor, circumnavigates the globeThe lust of a pioneer, will acknowledge no frontierI remember you by, thunderclap in the skyLightning flash, tempers flare,'round the horn if you dareI just spent six months in a leaky boatLucky just to keep afloatAotearoa, rugged individualGlisten like a pearl, at the bottom of the worldThe tyranny of distance, didn't stop the cavalierSo why should it stop me, I'll conquer and stay freeAh c'mon all you lads, let's forget and forgiveThere's a world to explore, tales to tell back on shoreI just spent six months in a leaky boatSix months in a leaky boatShip-wrecked love can be cruelDon't be fooled by her kindThere's a wind in my sailsWill protect and prevailI just spent six months in a leaky boatNothing to it leaky boat.
