"New American" lyrics
"New American"
Yankee cutter, trade wind breeze
Wayward soul on the seven lost seas
We ran in boulder til it was time to go
Worked the Klondike in the ice and snow
As I watched the sun go down
The night is just begun
This is my home now
For I am a new American
Eddie the Butcher was a stevedore
We sailed together to the Singapore shore
That's where we met Calico Jim
We drank his money and his bathtub gin
As I watched the sun go down
The night is just begun
This is my home now
For I am a new American
Sixteen days
Dead-end street
Ironclad
Pride of the fleet
As long as I can live to tell
The Butcher and I can still raise hell
As I watched the sun go down
The night is just begun
This is my home now
For I am a new American
