1.
I hugged the coast on the Sea of Ghosts
And jumped at every whisper
May Kyne’s fair kin get kissed ‘t the end,
But I’d rather see my Systres
CHORUS:
Way-hey, over and down,
As the sunlight glisters
Sailing ‘cross the bright blue sea,
Sailing for my Systres
2.
So guide all hands through Dunmer lands
And sing Saxhleel tongue twisters
Go drink and sin in Morrowind
I’d rather see my Systres
3.
We’ll sail on in to Leyawiin
And meet fine maids and misters
Let my anchor weigh from Topal Bay
And we’ll sail to see my Systres
4.
Khajiiti lands have warmer sands
More kind to tails and whiskers
But feline friends purr till the end
For the love of my sweet Systres
5.
My boat was paid by Bosmer maid
Who hoped I might assist her
I’d sail all night if the price was right
And it means I’d see my Systres
6.
Bedded a bard in Vulkhel Guard
Who knew I can’t resist her,
If the sun should set on Summerset
It’ll rise upon my Systres
7.
No tale more sad than a land-locked lad
Who walks the world in blisters
But he’ll sail with cheer from Alik’r
And meet my blessed Systres
CHORUS:
Way-hey, over and down,
As the sunlight glisters
Sailing ‘cross the bright blue sea,
Sailing for my Systres
8.
Met a clan of Orcs at Stonetooth Fort
With tusks and scraggly whiskers
We’ll war no more on far-off shores
We’ll truce for my dear Systres
CHORUS:
Way-hey, over and down,
As the sunlight glisters
Sailing ‘cross the bright blue sea,
Sailing for my Systres
9.
Life’s as long as a sailor’s song,
Death’s nothing I’d consider,
And I’ll ne’er abate the tides of fate
May I drift back to my Systres
May we drift back to our Systres
