letra de rolling down to old maui - traditional

[verse 1]
it’s a d-mn tough life full of toil and strife
we whalermen undergo
and we don’t give a d-mn when the day is done/gale has stopped
how hard the winds did blow
’cause we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground/tis a grand ol’ sound
with a good ship, taut and free
and we won’t give a d-mn when we drink our rum
with the girls of old maui

[chorus]
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui
[verse 2]
once more we sail with a northerly gale
towards our island home
our mainmast sprung, our whaling done
and we ain’t got far to roam
six h-llish months have passed away
on the cold kamchatka sea
but now wе’re bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

[chorus]
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
wе’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

[verse 3]
once more we sail with a northerly gale
through the ice and wind and rain
them coconut fronds, them tropical lands
we soon shall see again
our stu’n’s’l bones/booms is carried away
what care we for that sound?
a living gale is after us
thank god we’re homeward bound
[chorus]
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

[verse 4]
how soft the breeze through the island trees
now the ice is far astern
them native maids, them tropical glades
is a-waiting our return
even now their big brown eyes look out
hoping some fine day to see
our baggy sails runnin’ ‘fore the gales
rolling down to old maui

[chorus]
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

[verse 5]
we’ll heave the lead where old diamond head
looms up on old wahu
our masts and yards are sheathed with ice
and our decks are hid from view
the horrid ice of the sea-caked isles
that deck the arctic sea
are miles behind in the frozen wind
since we steered for old maui
[chorus]
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

[verse 6]
and now we’re anchored in the bay
with the kanakas all around
with chants and soft aloha oes
they greet us homeward bound
and now ashore we’ll have good fun
we’ll paint them beaches red
awaking in the arms of a wahine
with a big fat aching head

[chorus]
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui
