Excerpt from Personal and Political Ballads
I'll just lay to between them both And seem to be going forward.
Breakers ahead! Cried the watch on the bow, Hard up was the first mate's order; She feels the ground swell the passengers cried. And the seas already board her The foresail split in the angry gust, In the hold the ballast shifted; And an old tar said: If Jackson steered.
