Let the Sailors Dance

Randy Edelman, Jackie DeShannon

[Verse 1]
Daughter of the captain's maid
She's already seen too much of life
Can't remember where she slept last night
Nineteen years, a wounded bird in flight
Scarlet skies surround her
It's time to take a chance
So all aboard, hey, let the sailors dance

[Chorus]
Let the sailors dance
Let the angels cry
Let the ragin' passions fly
Oh, let the high seas roll
Let the storm waves prance
All aboard and let the sailors dance

[Verse 2]
Dreams of diamonds sparklin' on her hands
Ivory walls and rooms of paintings by Gauguin
Having not to worry where she'll eat
She knows who's arms will hold her while she sleeps
She hopes to find a kind man
Whose life she could enhance
So all aboard and let the sailors dance

[Chorus]
Let the sailors dance
Let the angels cry
Let the ragin' passions fly
Oh, let the high seas roll
Let the storm waves prance
All aboard and let the sailors dance

[Interlude]
(All aboard, let the sailors dance)

[Verse 3]
Her ship came in one day in London's port
Stayed awhile, met a lord of England's court
Said he'd like to change her wayward smile
Married soon, she's having her first child
She got more than she asked for
Two lives she could enhance
So all aboard, hey, let the sailors dance

[Chorus]
Let the sailors dance
Let the angels cry
Let the ragin' passions fly
Let the high seas roll
Let the storm waves prance
All aboard, let the sailors dance
Let the sailors dance
Let the angels cry
Let the ragin' passions, gotta fly-ah-eye
Oh, let the high seas roll
Let the storm waves prance
All aboard, let the sailors dance

[Outro]
Let the sailors dance
I wanna see the sailors dance
(Let the ragin' passions fly)
Why don't you let them fly, fly
