Dodging rain drops in the open lane
I curse the wind that blows me to the east
It’s a shame, babe, I never made the coast
And your warships took my ghost
Your warships took my ghost
Your warships took my ghost
Then the choirs sang to me, the crowds remained
“Keep your gun close and pave the way”
Well it’s a shame, babe, my roots run so deep
And your warships left at sea
Your warships left at sea
Your warships left at sea
