Save the Whales in Placerville and Hickston - David Munyon

[00:38.16]I arrive shanghaied and sober
[00:43.70]On the shift they call \"The Destiny\"
[00:48.83]On the coast of California
[00:53.71]Saved by grace, or so it seems
[00:59.46]There were nights
[01:00.65]On the watch there steering
[01:04.96]As much to where you could not see
[01:10.14]Funny, I remember drinkin' with you
[01:15.50]But where are you an' me
[01:18.01]
[01:23.27]After all these mended hearts
[01:27.95]Are broken by Liz Taylor
[01:33.25]We will sail for weather fairer
[01:39.14]And a chance for better
[01:44.06]May your sails be fast and free
[01:49.94]May the love come pourin' in
[01:55.39]May your cup be forever flowin'
[02:00.57]With the need to never take you in
[02:08.95]
[02:13.81]There were times in Placerville near
[02:18.65]The lumber yard in Hickston
[02:23.95]You would dream and the women there
[02:27.96]Would \"Vibe around\" and \"put you on''
[02:34.79]Do you remember the girl
[02:37.34]With Carl was for the war on whaling
[02:45.53]She had the look of Sweden's bliss
[02:49.29]And the most amazing band jamming
[02:58.48]
[03:03.74]After all these mended hearts
[03:08.61]Are broken by Liz Taylor
[03:14.33]We will sail for weather fairer
[03:19.45]And a chance for better
[03:24.78]May your sails be fast and free
[03:30.09]May the love come pourin' in
[03:35.58]May your cup be forever flowin'
[03:40.71]With the need to never take you in
[03:48.94]
[04:35.94]In the halls with Chaucer's tales
[04:40.30]They sit and speak of wisdom
[04:46.24]\"One likes math'' and
[04:48.31]\"One like never will understand this guy
[04:52.73]An' his religion\"
[04:57.36]I never will forget your faith
[05:02.69]You are a kinsman's kinsman
[05:08.07]This song is meant to save the whales
[05:11.82]On the seas of every nation
[05:21.49]
[05:26.98]After all these mended hearts
[05:31.69]Are broken by Liz Taylor
[05:37.37]We will sail for weather fairer
[05:42.99]And a chance for better
[05:48.43]May your sails be fast and free
[05:54.07]May the love come pourin' in
[05:59.62]May your cup be forever flowin'
[06:05.01]With the need to never take you in
