| We fired the gun and burned the mast |
| And rode from ship to shore |
| The captain cried, we sailors wept |
| Our tears were tears of joy |
| Now many moons and many Junes |
| Have passed since we made land |
| And the salty dog, the seaman's log |
| Your witness in my own hand |
| (repeat string/piano break; end on Db-5 w/seagulls) |
