about

Erik is sick of the Navy and longs to be home, where he drinks excessively and treats his wife, Clara, terribly.

Clara, at home, waits for Erik's return.

lyrics

There's a shadow of salt on my skin
Three long, lonely months away from my kin
Oh, the twisting slopes
Oh, the winding coasts of home

The ocean takes so much from men
Then the loneliness takes more again
I'm sick of boats
I'm coming home

Where I rule via liquor and fists
Woman fooled with a snicker and kiss
Here I rule via liquor and fists

For a man so frightened of drowning
You would think vodka would hold some fear
Why do I still wait for him when I know what's coming?
The Russians should attack and sink him down
There he can drink himself to death
