Clint Black - When My Ship Comes In
youtu.be/zkNDj5UTqBE
"Waiting for your ship to come in "
The saying originates from a few centuries ago when many people invested their money in merchant shipping companies, you could buy a share in a ship or in the cargo that was to be bought and when the ship returned from its voyage somewhere around the globe you would get your money back plus the investment you had made from it. Cargoes could have been in tea, spices, sugar, silk, cloth and any other amount of other valuable goods. This all took place in the days when communication to and from the ships was impossible. Many ships were lost to storms and piracy, so only the ones that completed the journey made a profit for the owners and share holders and stock / cargo investors / owners and no one could be 100% sure that their investment 'their ship' would come in until it actually reached port.
So to wait for your ship to come in was literally to wait for the investment you had made to arrive.
