Danny

Danny
 Danny flew his stars and stripes
 Had a wife and a baby
 Bounced him on his knee each night
 Till he took off with the navy
 Jesus was a sailor, boys
 Sailed on Galilee
 If he went to work today
 He'd have to sail the seven seas
 Danny took his fishing boat
 A hundred miles away
 To the waters no one owns
 To the land of wind and wave
 All along the seacoast towns
 Along the narrowland
 They heard a storm was coming down
 Two parts water one part sand
 The wind it drove the sea so wild
 It opened like a jaw
 Came down in a salty smile
 And it ate up all it saw
 Fifteen feet the ocean rose
 Fifteen feet it fell
 When that boat began to fall
 Must have seemed like hell
 Danny flew his stars and stripes
 Had a wife and a baby
 Saw them in the sea that night
 When he went down with the navy
