Rockin', Rollin' Ocean - Hank Snow

Ev’ry day I listen to the surging tide

And I always wonder why the sea’s so wide

Miles of salty water, endless skies above

Stretch out far between me and the one I love.

Chorus:

Rockin' rollin' ocean

With your briny foam

Bring my sweetheart back to me Bring my darling home.

Ev’ry night I wander down beside the sea

Callin' to the wind to blow her back to me Now my arms are empty, since she sailed away

Only stars to hear me when I kneel and pray.

Chorus:

Rockin' rollin' ocean

With your briny foam

Bring my sweetheart back to me Bring my darling home.

Little drops of water, little grains of sand

Make a wide, wide ocean in a lonely land

When a new ship anchors and she don’t appear

I make the ocean wider with another tear.

Chorus:

Rockin' rollin' ocean

With your briny foam

Bring my sweetheart back to me Bring my darling home…
