WITH SALT WATER BLOOD

 

With saltwater blood

The valiant mariners

Are bound to the sea

By unseen chains

And serve their mistress

In sun and rain

But when gales blow

And storm and tempest

Batters and bloodies

They pray to the master

To be carried to shore

And when land sits

Beneath their feet

They crave a deck

And a rolling sea

And are drawn back

To their mistress
