Sons of the sea.
Have you heard the talk of foreign powers building ships increasingly?
Do you know they watch the isle of ours, watch their chance uncreasingly?
Have you heard the millions they will spend, strengthening their fleets and why?
They imagine they can break or bend the nation that has often made them fly:
But one thing we process: they forget, they forget,
The lads in blue they've met, often met, often met,
Chorus
Sons of the sea, all British born, sailing every ocean, laughing foes to scorn,
They may build their ships, my lads, and think they know the game,
But they can't build boys of the bull-dog breed,
Who made old England's name,
Written and composed by Felix Mc Glennon.
