Captain Charlie was his name
Oh, his heart was made of steel.
He always kept his crew in line
Though, his spirit, he kept concealed

The captain knew just where to go
When the gales were just too bold.
His keen eye and his will to lead
Kept the lads all in his hold

So we'll all mourn for ol' Charlie
For his life was lost at sea
His soul was snatched by a nasty wave
And the ocean set him free

And we'll all mourn for ol' Charlie
He was the bravest man I'd known.
But when we saw his body rise in the ocean, his eyes were made of stone.

Captain Charlie's lass was fair
As the sunrise in the morn
So when he left for the sea's embrace
The only thing she did was mourn

Her tears were as salty as his grave
For with child, she would lay
Without her lover by her side
Things would never be the same.

So we'll all mourn for ol' Charlie
For his life was lost at sea
His soul was snatched by a nasty wave
And the ocean set him free

And we'll all mourn for ol' Charlie
He loved his lady to the bone.
But when we saw his body rise in the ocean, his eyes were made of stone.

Captain Charlie is a tale
'How the seas are not your friend.
The crew broke up and the babe was born
And his wife had met her end.

The young lad grew into a man
And took his father's place
As the captain of his own platoon
With the same look on his face

So we'll all mourn for ol' Charlie
For his life was lost at sea
His soul was snatched by a nasty wave
And the ocean set him free

And we'll all mourn for ol' Charlie
But his son was next to go
So when we see his body rise in the ocean,
Ol' Charlie won't be alone.

So when we see his body rise in the ocean,
Ol' Charlie won't be alone.
