Gary Olson - Navy Boats

What a season 1890
Glory of that golden run
With a ball and some fate

A signal weakens you won't find him
Agents fade in midday sun
It was nothing he wrote
and took one on the nose

Captain Billy goodbye
Joey Darling it's time
and wherever she goes
Even navy boats won't read the smoke

Spin the searchlight, stop believing
Be careful that your thoughts don't sway
and your eyes they strain
but the photo was staged

That's when Henry turns to greet him
and says that there's no chance of rain
He bet one month's wage
Billy lost his faith

Captain Billy goodbye
Joey Darling it's time
and wherever she goes
Even navy boats won't read the smoke

Captain Billy goodbye
Joey Darling it's time

What a season 1890
Glory of that golden run
With a ball and some fate WG Grace

Captain Billy goodbye
Joey Darling outside
and wherever she goes
Even navy boats won't read the smoke
