You can glamorize being on the water, being a fisherman....but like every other work it's just a job at the end of the day and the fisherman's goal is just to get home to his family.
Lyrics
CHORUS:
Hey, oh! Fishermen singin' on the water
Hey, oh! Fishermen singin' on the water
All day long water's all I see
Deep in the night
The stars watch over me
Feel the rhythm and the rockin'
Of the waves
I'm homeward bound
To the ones I love
CHORUS
Seagulls spinnin' in circles overhead
Fish are jumpin'
From their warm salty beds
See my home rise from the sea
My heart opens up
Brings this song out of me
CHORUS
Homeward bound
Homeward bound
Homeward bound
'Singin' on the water!
Feel the comfort
Of dry sand on my feet
Run up the shore
Fall down to my knees
Stretch my arms out
Across the land
Give a big kiss to the warm
Salty sand
CHORUS
Homeward bound
Homeward bound
Homeward bound
Singin' on the water
CHORUS
