A rowing song for our Jason and Medea series.

We are not only telling the story of Jason and Medea in verse, but in song too ! We hope you enjoy these soaring vocals and bluesy guitar. We have two more songs to come, so listen out for those.

Composed and Sung by Gabriella Burnel

They rowed across the deep black sea
A never ending stretch.
They heaved and hoe-ed, and on they rowed
For the fleece they need must fetch

And Orpheus strummed his sweet sweet lyre
And sung out his sweet honeyed voice,
Row on boys, row on boys, don't you slack
Row on boys, row on boys, there's no going back
We surf the sea to our destiny
Keep right on track !

They rowed across the deep black sea
A never ending stretch.
They heaved and hoe-ed, and on they rowed
For the fleece they need must fetch

And when at night, they slept at their seats,
Heracles rowed on.
He would have rowed more, but he broke his oar,
Snap! and it was gone.

And Orpheus strummed his sweet sweet lyre
And sung out his sweet honeyed voice,
Row on boys, row on boys don't you slack
Row on boys, row on boys, there's no going back

We surf the sea to our destiny
