作曲：

I never used to miss the

Chance to climb up on his knee

And listen to the many tales of life upon the sea

We'd go sailing back on Barkentines

We'd talk of things he did

Tomorrow just a day away

For the Captain and the kid

His world had gone from sailing

Ships to raking mom's backyard

He never could adjust to land

Although he tried so hard

We both were growing older

Then and wiser with the years

That's when I came to understand

The course his heart still steers

He died about a month ago

While winter filled the air

And though I cried I was so

Proud to love a man so rare

He's somewhere on the ocean now

That's where he oughta be

With one hand on the starboard rail

He's wavin' back at me

I never used to miss the chance

To climb up on his knee

And listen to the many

Tales of life upon the sea

We'd go sailing back on Barkentines

We'd talk of things he did

Tomorrow just a day away

For the Captain and the kid

For the Captain and the kid
