1
(unreleased track from the Elephant Riders sessions)
2
Off the shore of Laborador
3
The crew labored to bilge the hold
4
The stern it floundered in the shoal
5
The bow bucked up like a bronco
6
The crew was strong 'til Captain called
7
"Throw the spermaceti o'er
8
Throw the spermaceti overboard, overboard"
9
The captain woke with sandy eyes
10
"Am I alone?" the old sir cried
11
"'tis I" he heard a bitter voice reply
12
"Jason Kip of? Town
13
I fear the men have all been drowned
14
And we two are the only to survive, to survive"
15
Nancy was a pretty girl
16
Golden hair and eyes of pearl
17
And she made a pretty bride
18
For the ancient Captain Bly
19
Her true love was Jason Kip
20
Porter on the Captain's ship
21
Nancy paced the widow's walk
22
Listening to the widow's talk
23
She heard "Nancy, do not weep,
24
The ship is late, but just a week"
25
"My late husband Captain Pierce
26
Was gone once for several years.
27
He returned with silk and spice
28
Minus one leg and his eyes"
29
In the end the ocean has its revenge
30
Whether tomorrow or 100 years
31
The Captain was a giant man
32
With miles of intestines
33
And a stomach larger than
34
The Persian Gulf
35
Was not 3 weeks when Bly took chase
36
And in his sleep untied him
37
And without a thought he ate him
38
Clean and whole, clean and whole
39
As the Captain licked his lips
40
He was spotted by a ship
41
Nancy truly was relieved
42
But for Jason how she grieved
43
In a carriage they rode home
44
Any guilt he did not show
45
As they sat to dine that night
46
He lacked any appetite
47
As the two lay in their bed
48
Captain's gut turned cherry red
49
With the sounds of gale-force wind
50
Sprung an angry Jason Kip
51
In the end the ocean has its revenge
52
Whether tomorrow or 100 years
53
It takes limbs and lives
54
And from the wives an equal ocean of their fallen tears
