Out of Hull a course was set
Clothes and soap and spinning gear
Passengers and crew well met
Dundee destination clear
A head of steam
All the way
A holy man
There for his health they say
Humble was the Captain's name
Blighted by a mighty storm
A boiler could not hold its own
Worse than passage round Cape Horn
Raising sails
In heavy seas
Neptune's mouth
Crew and Captain on their knees
See around the lighthouse wild
Everything blown off course
Flying through the soaring peaks
Listing ship — mighty horse
Rails on deck
The holy man
Is losing grip
Falling, sliding...
Clothes and soap and spinning gear
Passengers and crew well met
Dundee destination clear
A head of steam
All the way
A holy man
There for his health they say
Humble was the Captain's name
Blighted by a mighty storm
A boiler could not hold its own
Worse than passage round Cape Horn
Raising sails
In heavy seas
Neptune's mouth
Crew and Captain on their knees
See around the lighthouse wild
Everything blown off course
Flying through the soaring peaks
Listing ship — mighty horse
Rails on deck
The holy man
Is losing grip
Falling, sliding...
