All Aboard For America

Well the captain said, "Look out we're setting sail tonight"

And the harbour lights were dim on that dark and foggy night

And I thought I knew what we were doing

Heading for a place to start anew in

No turning back no opting out it's now or never

And the captain said, "We're off to far and distant shores"

And you turned and said to me, "If you want me boy I'm yours"

Well you took my hand and my heart was beating

As I thought of all that we were leaving

No turning back no opting out it's now or never

All aboard for America sail away to the land of the free

All aboard for America come away you can come with me

If you want to, so all aboard for America

La, la, la, li, li, li

Well the food was running low and the water running dry

And the captain went below and I swear I heard him cry

"If we don't see land this time tomorrow

There'll be many die and so much sorrow

Too late for hope time's running out it's now or never"

Then the first mate's voice rang out and he shouted "Land ahoy!"

And a mighty cheer was heard from every woman, man and boy

And I saw the place of my salvation

And I set my face in determination

No turning back no opting out it's now or never

All aboard for America sail away to the land of the free

All aboard for America come away you can come with me

If you want to, so all aboard for America

La, la, la, li, li, li ....
