Captain Kennedy
Ton : DEnglish
DmI am a young marinerC headed Dmto war
I'm thinkin''bout my family and whFat it was Dmfor
There's water on the wood and the sFails feel Dmgood
And when I get to shore I Chope that I can kill Dmgood
DmMy father was a sailor namedC Captain DmKennedy
He lost his wooden schooner to the FGermans on theDm sea
Exploded on the Fwater for everyone toDm see
And humiliate that American CCaptain KenDmnedy
DmI saw him in Nassau inC nineteen seventDmy one
His strength was failin'but he sFtill ran a Dmrun
He worked 'til his fingers Fwore to theDm bone
To buy that wooden schooner and Csail on hisDm own
DmHe was known in the islands asC hundred fooDmt iron
That steel hull freighter was Fpassin'its Dmtime
And time flew by faster with Flife on theDm sea
And the days grew shorter for CCaptain KennDmedy
DmI am a young marinerC headed tDmo war
I'm thinkin''bout my family and wFhat it was Dmfor
There's water on the wood and the Fsails feel Dmgood
And when I get to shore I hope thatC I can killDm good
