Rockin', Rollin' Ocean Songtext
von Hank Snow

Every 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

Rockin', rollin′ ocean
With your briny foam
Bring my sweetheart back to me
Bring my darlin' home


Every night I wander down beside the sea
Calling 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

Rockin', rollin′ ocean
With your briny foam
Bring my sweetheart back to me
Bring my darlin′ 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


Rockin′, rollin' ocean
With your briny foam
Bring my sweetheart back to me
Bring my darlin′ home
