Robert Bruce Scott - Old Ironsides lyrics



There was still a little light left in the western sky
And the spray from the storm and the howling darkness followed
As the last sail was furled, the captain ordered the ship about
He stood at the prow as the clipper turned

The old captain said
Turn and face the storm, boys
And pray for your lives
Make your peace with God, boys
And then stand up and fight
The Constitution will make it through
Old Ironsides won't fail, I promise you

And when the mist sprays off the roof of my neighbor's house
And the rain screams across my veranda
I'll stand there and I'll remember you and this day
If you'll just remember

Remember to turn and face the storm, boys
And pray for your lives
Make your peace with God, boys
And then stand up and fight
The Constitution will make it through
Old Ironsides won't fail, I promise you

And every man remembered, each who made it home
The old captain at the prow saying
Men pray for your souls
True to his word when the storms bring the rain
The captain stands out on his porch
And remembers that day - remembers each man
Remembers the voyage from which he never came home
