Great Big Sea's music CDs BUY here.
When I was a young man just barely fourteen, craving adventure and lore,
Shore yeah,
We sailed all along the French Shore.
What beautiful vessels were sailing back then, all bound for the North Labrador,
Shore, yeah,
To sail all along the French Shore.
On each ship a maiden was hired to cook, a beautiful girl to adore,
Shore, yeah,
While sailing along the French Shore.
Being too young for courting I soon did decide, to spy on the lovers on shore,
yeah,
While sailing along the French Shore.
They're actions peculiar appeared to me then, but now they're not funny no more,
They were hugging and kissing, oh what I've been missing,
While sailing along the French Shore, yeah,
While sailing along, sailing along, sailing along the French Shore.
That couple has children now married I know,
You see they're not young anymore,
Still yet they don't know how I witnessed the show that they played
All along the French Shore, yeah,
They played along the French Shore.
That ends the story of my bonnie days, would that I could live them once more,
And this much I know, I'd produce my own show,
And I'd stage it along the French Shore, yeah,
While sailing along, sailing along,
While sailing along, sailing along, while sailing along the French Shore.
