Lyrics Good Ship - Celebration

Good Ship

Anchors drag.
Our cables surge
The hurting sea breaks veils on the verge
While waves foam and churn
We drifty slowly astern astern
Beyond, the storm’s a looming
THE END we are assuming
Mast break sharp to shreds
Strings like a harp’s instead
She’s headed out for the open main
Our hearts beating, one and all
On crowded decks and reeling bows
The tempest tossed the hope we lost
The hearts we crossed
OH, god save our souls!
Tell my family not to mourn
The sea life they do curse and scorn
Tell that bonny bride
Where my broken bones reside
Deep in that briny dark
My chest consumed by great white shark
Then I shall veer into the tide
Soul free and death with pride
Our hearts beating, one and all
On crowded decks and reeling bows
The tempest tossed the hope we lost
The hearts we crossed
OH god save our souls!
