Icy Acres

Lyrics
These lyrics are based off the video released by The Longest Johns in April 2020

{Chorus}

Fare thee well, ye icy acres

Fare thee well, ye whaling grounds

Fare thee well, ye banks of Greenland

Weary whalers homeward bound

{Chorus}

Homeward breezes bend the blossom

Where the oak and the apples grow

God forgot the green in Greenland

Made the flowers from ice and snow

{Chorus}

Home where grasses lace the meadows

By the waters running free

And the rivers sweetly flowing

Turn towards the open sea

{Chorus}

Six long months we've been a-hunting

Through a hell of frozen flame

Now like sails, our hearts are billowing

As we turn for home again

{Chorus x2 til End}
