Father Neptune
When my man goes to sea,
he steps so high and free.
I think I know as I watch him go
that he has no need for me, for me.
And when my man comes home
and waits a while to roam,
I think I see when he smiles at me
that he's dreaming of the foam, the foam.

When he's home from sea he is half with me
and he's gone when I close the door,
and it's still his creed that he has no need
of a wife except on shore.
I know it's the boat that keeps him afloat,
but I like to think it's me.
And if it were not for this
I would sink to the depths of the sea.
