Shiver Me Timbers - Tom Waits

    I'm leavin' my fam'ly
    Leavin' all my friends
    My body's at home
    But my heart's in the wind
    Where the clouds are like headlines
    On a new front page sky
    My tears are salt water
    And the moon's full and high

    And I know Martin Eden's
    Gonna be proud of me
    And many before me
    Who've been called by the sea
    To be up in the crow's nest
    Singin' my say
    Shiver me Timbers
    'Cause I'm a-sailin' away

    And the fog's liftin'
    And the sand's shiftin'
    I'm driftin' on out
    Ol' Captain Ahab
    He ain't got nothin' on me, now.
    So swallow me, don't follow me
    I'm trav'lin' alone
    Blue water's my daughter
    'n I'm gonna skip like a stone

    So please call my missus
    Gotta tell her not to cry
    'Cause my goodbye is written
    By the moon in the sky
    Hey and nobody knows me
    I can't fathom my stayin'
    Shiver me timbers
    'Cause I'm a-sailin' away

    And the fog's liftin'
    And the sand's shiftin'
    I'm driftin' on out
    Ol' Captain Ahab
    He ain't got nothin' on me
    So come and swallow me, follow me
    I'm trav'lin' alone
    Blue water's my daughter
    'n I'm gonna skip like a stone

    And I'm leavin' my family
    Leavin' all my friends
    My body's at home
    But my heart's in the wind
    Where the clouds are like headlines
    Upon a new front page sky
    And shiver me timbers
    'Cause I'm a-sailin' away
