Very eager to find the lyrics to a song, possibly by Archie Fisher. Fragments I remember:

When you're sailing out for the first time
Men will tell you of trips that they've made
Of the work and the Sweat and the Loneliness
And you'll feel just a little afraid.
...
If you ask them why men go sailing
and why from their families they part
they may say that it's for the money
or that Man is a hunter at heart
