Captain Stormalong

(album: On The Shoulders Of Giants - 2016)

Sailing on a ship, Tuscarora was her name
We hinged her masts to avoid catching the moon
Captain Stormalong led us through the seas
He was a giant of a man who stood thirty foot tall
He cried onward past the winds, forward past the storms
Fear not my brothers no grave will catch our fall
See I was born on the sea and raise on the shore
Kissed by the rain and blessed by Poseidon's fork

Now on one fateful day smooth waters all around
Our captain hatched a master plan
He'd rid the seas of that kraken beast
This time he vowed would be its last stand
With a storm on the rise we took it by surprise
And caught it in a massive whirlpool's web
Unable to retreat from its unending defeat
The souls of sailors rejoiced unbroken

Now everyone's asking what became of Stormalong
Truth is nobody knows
Some legends claim to hold the final truths
But no one knows but Davey Jones
Davey Jones
Davey Jones
No one knows but Davey Jones
Davey Jones
