Stuck on this ship for ten months now
God, I shouldn't have joined the navy
I still have three long months to go
'Till I see my darling lady
So many gulls above my head
Crying oh so loudly
Reminding me how unfree I am
They mock my flightless body
All of the kids run through the town
All but one are smiling
The women all tend to sleep around
While the men are killing, dying
I don't know what I'm going to do
I don't know what will save me
Careful, I might just be one
That sends you to the god what made ye...
