Once I owned a ship I was a captain on the sea And folks would tell me She's a beautiful ship And I'd inform them that my ship was a he And folks would start to laugh They saw a concrete gender role And the laughing would continue Until I'd point out with my finger The name "Frank" was painted on the hull I give Frank frequent baths I make sure he's nice and clean And we love to watch the night sky As we dance on through the moonlight While the starlight's reflected off the sea And Frank keeps me so warm As he rocks me off to sleep And when I wake it feels so good To run my hands over his wood As he kisses me with the cool ocean breeze My wife says she leaving me It's more than she can take She says I hardly ever stay with her 'Cause I spend my nights riding Frank The word has spread around And business has been slow Because the merchants in the harbor Don't want us to take their cargo 'Cause nobody wants Frank to take their load But we had to earn our gold We were forced into piracy I bought an eyepatch and I wear it I grew a beard and bought a parrot But I fear the crew in planning mutiny The men confirmed my suspicions They made walk the plank They said they could not get accustomed to The idea riding Frank As for the crew who stole my ship They renamed him Francine And if Frank wanted to swap genders Then I'm glad my old crew let her And I guess that's fine by me
