Lyrics

We are all born free but forever live in chains
 And we battle through existence on and on
 We'll take whatever comes to be while keeping hopeful melody
 And we'll cruise through the darkness until the warmth of dawn
 So, row, row you bastards you never can tell
 Through water like glass above a briney hell
 So, row and a-hollar come give her all you can
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
 We carry on the burden and we hide our grimace well
 For the day will come for us to mutiny
 But as long as we survive our hope and pride they cant deprive
 And we'll carry on our melody to sing in harmony
 So, row, row you bastards you never can tell
 Over water like glass above a briney hell
 So, row and a-hollar come give her all you can
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
 ♪
 So, row, row you bastards you never can tell
 The ocean a tempest or the land a stormy hell
 So, row a litlle harder 'til bloodied on the hand
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
 We are wracked from the hardships
 Exhausted by the years we can still escape this barren misery
 But even with our shackled wrists we can fight our way through this
 And we'll power all aboard the ship to total liberty
 So, row, row you bastards you never can tell
 The ocean a tempest or the land a stormy hell
 So, row a litlle harder 'til bloodied on the hand
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
 So, row, row you bastards you never can tell
 The ocean a tempest or the land a stormy hell
 So, row a litlle harder 'til bloodied on the hand
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
 Or the sea she will best us, we'll never see the land
