I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor
I wrest the waters, fight Neptune's waters
Sail through the sorrows of life's marauders
Unrepenting, often empty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Caught like a sewer rat alone but I sail
Bought like a crust of bread, but oh do I wail
Seldom stumble, never crumble
Try to tumble, life's a rumble
Feel the stinging I've been given
Never ending, unrelenting
Heartbreak searing, always fearing
Never clearing persevering
Sail on, sail on, sailor
I work the seaways, the gale-swept seaways
Past shipwrecked daughters of wicked waters
Uninspired, drenched and tired
Wail on, wail on, sailor
Always needing, even bleeding
Never feeding all my feelings
Damn the thunder, must I blunder
There's no wonder all I'm under
Stop the crying and the lying
And the sighing and my dying
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor

Review about Sail On Sailor Former Member of The Hornettes BB Back Up | Reviewer: Dick Kaplan | 1/29/2008
Ultimately the most Relaxing, Moving, and Inspiring of the Band's Innumerable Songs.. . .The Beach Boys Melodically have Absolutely No Equal in The Rock Genre !
Yeah! You probably are right. At least I like to think so. It´s beautiful to think of the mid 70´s Beach Boys as a ´family´ trying to bring its most significant member back to the spotlight, instead of the drifting mess they´d later start to become...
Great song. Quite beautiful and evoking lyrics too. Good job for Blondie Chaplin (specially recommended is the "Beach Boys Live" version). As always, the backing vocals are so unique...
We still miss you Carl and Dennis. Brian, keep it goin´...
