[Verse 1] Rise with the dawn, the work begins, Pull the ropes and brace the winds. The sails are heavy, the waves are high, We toil beneath a weary sky. No time for rest, no songs to cheer, Just the creak of the mast and the grinding gear. [Chorus] Pull and haul, the tide won’t wait, The sea demands, and sets our fate. Day to night, the hours blur, For the endless tide, we must endure. [Verse 2] The captain calls, the lines must hold, The salt burns deep, the nights are cold. The deck is slick, the storms roll near, Yet still we labor, year by year. No sight of shore, no time for sleep, Our blood and sweat, the sea does keep. [Chorus] Pull and haul, the tide won’t wait, The sea demands, and sets our fate. Day to night, the hours blur, For the endless tide, we must endure. [Verse 3] Our backs may break, our hands may bleed, But the ship moves forth with brutal speed. We curse the chains, we curse the wave, Yet still we dig our watery grave. The ocean laughs, she takes her due, And leaves us spent when the work is through. [Chorus] Pull and haul, the tide won’t wait, The sea demands, and sets our fate. Day to night, the hours blur, For the endless tide, we must endure. [Verse 4] One day the grind will come to cease, Our hands will rest, our souls find peace. Until that day, we push, we fight, Through storm and sweat and endless night. For the tide is cruel, it takes, it wrings, Yet we endure, for the life it brings. [Chorus] Pull and haul, the tide won’t wait, The sea demands, and sets our fate. Day to night, the hours blur, For the endless tide, we must endure. [Chorus] Pull and haul, the tide won’t wait, The sea demands, and sets our fate. Day to night, the hours blur, For the endless tide, we must endure.
