Iona Boat - 11th October 1995

A ticket shack on a windy day

Doth meet the pilgrim on the pier

Too treacherous, the headland rocks

A strange receipt will get you through

The boat turns in the swell

Who knows which way is north or south?

But soon we are on our way

then voyage over, passage safe

Wave after wave we count ourselves brave

But the waves in our hearts continue to break

Iona boat bring us to calm shores
