Seamans Door
The sea came roaring down over the rocks,
As the boats were swaying on the docks.
The breeze was cold with a chill,
The night was not still.
The wind was swooping down with a song.
The trees were blowing all night long.
The tide was restless on the shore.
The ripping of old ships on the oceans floor
The light house still remains lit. The fog horns blow.
To warn the ships as they go.
One boat, two boats, a fishing fleet.
A salmon steakout, a tuna meet.
The oceans calm as the sun shines down.
Now, there's sailboats all around.
The breeze has stopped to a stand still.
Waiting for another oil spill
