Caledonia - Nathan Evans

A sailor and his true love sat doon to mak' their moan When by cam' ane o' their ain countrymen Sayin', Rise up my bonnie lassie, mak' haste and come awa' There's a vessel lyin' bound for Caledonia Well, said the sailor, Are ye willing for to pay Five hundred guineas before on board ye gae I'll pay them plack and farthing, before on board I go If you'll tak' me tae my bonnie Caledonia Well, said the sailor, Her money we will tak' And when we're on sea, we will throw her over deck Or sell her for a slave, lang or e'er she win awa' And she'll never see her bonnie Caledonia Well, said the captain, That'll never do For there are no slaves sold intil oor country noo They would hang us ane and a', they would hang us every man If we sold her for a slave in Caledonia Well, said the sailor, She's lyin' doon below She's bound hand and foot ready overboard to throw She's bound hand and foot ready overboard to throw And she'll never see her bonnie Caledonia So the captain away to the fair maid has gane Sayin', What is the reason that ye lie here so lang And what is the reason that you're lying here at all For ye've paid your passage dear to Caledonia Oh, says the lassie, Oh woe is me That ever I was born sic hardships for to see For the sailor's got a lassie he likes better far than me And it causes me to weep for Caledonia So the captain away to the sailor has gane He's ta'en him by the neck and him overboard has thrown Saying, Tak' this cup o' water, though the liquor be but sma' And drink your lassie's health tae Caledonia And they've sailed east, and they've sailed west Until they reached the land that they all loved the best For the waves they did roar and the seas they did beat And they've all arrived safe to Caledonia And they hadnae been there but threequarters o' a year When fine silks and satins he's made her for to wear When in fine silks and satins he's made her for to go Now she's the captain's wife in Caledonia Now she's the captain's wife in Caledonia

I don't know if you can see the changes that have come over me In these last few days I've been afraid that I might drift away So I've been telling old stories, singing songs That make me think about where I came from And that's the reasons why I seem so far away today Oh and let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home For if I should become a stranger You know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Oh and I have moved and I've kept on moving Proved the points that I needed proving Lost the friends that I needed losing, found others on the way Oh and I have tried and kept on trying Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying I have travelled hard with conscience flying somewhere with the wind Oh and let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home For if I should become a stranger You know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Now I'm sitting here before the fire, the empty room, the forest choir The flames that couldn't get any higher Well they've withered, now they've gone But I'm steady thinking My way is clear and I know what I will do tomorrow When the hands have shaken and the kisses flow, well I will disappear Oh and let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home For if I should become a stranger You know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
