lyrics

sailor girl is all at sea. she says,
‘i’m looking for something real, something to set me free’.
what will it be. what will it be ?.

sailor girl is up and down. she says
‘i need an anchor to keep me in this town’.
what will it be. what will it be ?.

captain, my captain, what do you do when your dreams are sinking.
what do you hold on to?.
captain, my captain, what do you say when the boat is leaking.
what do you hold on to?.
what do you hold on to?.

sailor girl gives in and sighs. she says
‘is my head in the clouds, are there stars in my eyes?.
what will it be. what will it be ?.

captain, my captain, what do you do when your dreams are sinking.
what do you hold on to?.
captain, my captain, what do you say when the boat is leaking.
what do you hold on to?.
what do you hold on to?.
