A boat gone from dowdy to derelict
In half a dozen years

And he wonders how she knew
That she was waiting for a loner

She's lying on the bottom again
With only him to care

His wife walked out; so he hit the bars
And hit up every friend
To raise the Blue Dolphin

And it's driving him crazy
He pounds his fists white on the dock in the night
And cries, "I'm gonna win!"
And licks the blood away
And he's gonna raise the Dolphin

Blue Dolphin's lying like a wounded whale
She's hungry for a scrap of a sail
To get her underway
Back to salt water
Now there's a man lying spent in the winter sun
He wonders what the hell he has done
And who would ever pay
To save his schooner daughter
