Captain lyrics
Stopped for a rest on the south coast of Maine
I was thumbin’ my way to adventure again
Searching for treasures that never were there
And for rainbows that never appeared
And there was a man on this musty old pier
Cooking his catch and drinking his beer
My pride stepped aside, I approached him in fear
Captain, I 'm hungry and cold
Captain, I’ll take your advice
Treasure what's already mine
I been reachin’ for pearls that are out of my sight
Captain, I ’ll take your advice
He turned around without lookin' at me
And through all of his whiskers. a smile I could see
And through the smolderin' fire,
I heard him whisper to me
'Set you down, boy, we’ve stories untold’
He filled up my belly with fish, chips and beer
And told how he' battled the sea most his years
And while diving for pearls that were out of his sight
The deep took the day from his eyes
*Captain, I'll take your advice
Treasure what's already mine
I been reachin' for pearls that are out of my sight ...
* repeat

I have always like this song and no longer have it in my collection. Does anyone know where I can get a copy of it to download?
