procol harum - a salty dog lyrics
(brooker / reid)
‘all hands on deck, we’ve run afloat!’ i heard the captain cry
‘explore the ship, replace the cook: let no one leave alive!’
across the straits, around the h-rn: how far can sailors fly?
a twisted path, our tortured course, and no one left alive
we sailed for parts unknown to man, where ships come home to die
no lofty peak, nor fortress bold, could match our captain’s eye
upon the seventh seasick day we made our port of call
a sand so white, and sea so blue, no mortal place at all
we fired the gun, and burnt the mast, and rowed from ship to sh-r-
the captain cried, we sailors wept: our tears were tears of joy
now many moons and many junes have p-ssed since we made land
a salty dog, this seaman’s log: your witness my own hand
