About 15 years ago, I caught a live performance on a radio folk music show. The band (whose name I can't remember) did this song - I got the song on tape and have learned it, but have no idea who to credit it to during performance. Does this ring a bell with anyone? Am I missing any verse (seems likely)?

Ch: Roll away, you steamships With your boilers, your smoke and your noise I'm sailing away with the wind today And I'll leave you behind in the breeze

Years ago when the river was quiet You could hear what your neighbors were saying With the birds of the land is where I began But I left for the waves of the sea

With the seeds of adversity about to bear fruit I crossed the Pacific Ocean When I landed far East I had nowhere to go So I left for the world I would see.
