A SAILOR'S PRAYER COPYRIGHTED
Now I lay me down to sleep,
Feed me in my dying throes.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
Take me back-I'll promise thee
Grant no other sailor take
Never to leave home again.
My shoes or socks before I wake.
Lord, guard me in my slumber,
THREE YEARS LATER
And keep my hammock on its number, Our father who art in Washington,
May no clews nor lashings break,
Please, dear father, let me stay,
And let me down before I wake;
Do not drive me now away,
Keep me safely in thy sight,
Wipe away my scalding tears
And grant no fire drill tonight;
And let me stay my thirty years.
And in the morning let me wake
Please forgive me all my past
Breathing scents of sirloin steak.
And things that happened at the mast;
God, protect me in my dreams
Do not my request refuse,
And make this better than it seems.
Let me stay another cruise.
Grant the time may swiftly fly
When I myself shall rest on high
And then when first I come ashore
In a snowy feather bed,
I'd go to Liberman's as of yore;
Where I long to rest my head.
For he's the man who makes my blues
Far away from all these scenes,
By dealing with him I can never lose.
And from the smell of half-baked beans, With the best of material and a perfect fit
Take me back into the land,
Wherever I go I make a hit.
Where they don't scrub down with sand; So, please, dear father, don't say nay,
Where no demon typhoon blows
For S. F. is where I want to stay;
And where the women wash the clothes. And then I'll get my suit of blues
God, thou knowest all my woes,
That keeps its shape for a four-year cruise.
