lyrics

There’s no bones about him, cosigns to hit bottom in an old spanish ship
He calls for new hires in the shadow of spires to man this dangerous trip

So put your backs into it and let’s row, boys and girls, row
If we ever return home, it’s thank to our own
But for now we row for no bones

There’s no bones about him, can’t recall when he lost ‘em. It was sometime before his debut
We know who bought ‘em, years ago we caught ‘em but there was nothing we could do

Except put our backs into it and let’s row, boys and girls, row
If we ever return home, it’s thank to our own
But for now we row for no bones

You don’t know him well, you hardly can tell what he even means by a nod
Keep your time and stay in line against all odds

There’s no bones about him, we lost when we fought him so we know how his vision narrows
As we leave the bay and see the land fade our bones get cold to the marrow

As we put our backs into it and let’s row, boys and girls, row
If we ever return home, it’s thank to our own
But for now we row for no bones
