Lyrics
Description
— Piano music plays —
Dawn breaks on steel, a wake of salt and light
The watch stands ready, breath fog in the night
A single radio hum, a distant gull's cry
We lace our boots, we steady side
Sun on the bell, paint chip, hush of the hull
We tighten a bolt, wipe oil from a palm
Dawn watch writes a letter home in the mail room
Calm ink smudges like salt, steady in the psalm
Kicks and snares split the shore, boots thunder
Echoes raw brass, taste the breath of the dawn
Semen on the rail, eyes like flint
Counting stars and chores, patching canvas till the storm is gone
Piano line hums, breath between the guns
Hands on the ropes, counting seconds not the runs
A melody rises, low and true
Salt and steel, we answer the call with you
Who guards the oceans, wide and free?
CROWD! MARINES!
Who storms the shore when the battle's near?
Who holds the line through the storm and flame?
Whose flag we carry, say the name
USA!
USA!
2am coffee, a soldered seam, a radio crackle
Orders come thin and tight, quartermaster counts rations
A laugh from the galley, bacon, beans, a letter read at night
Engine room heat, a cousin's name stitched on a jacket hem
A photograph taped to the bulkhead wood
Corrosion and courage mixed in a cup
One crew, one watch, doing what they know they should
Silent seas and roaring guns, we stand till the tide runs done
Wake at dawn, the hull repaid, a prayer of smoke, a name in the sun
Hand in hand till the morning's come
Hand in hand till the morning's come
Now the kick drops off a four, piano leads, the ocean hums like a hymn
A seaman hums a melody while fixing a seam, the low times lift us up the brim
A brother writes home, tell my I'm safe, folds the paper twice and tucks it in his sock
A squad on the deck, shadows long shells of courage, taped around the clock
Left, left
Left, right
Left, right, left
Who stands when the horizon tries to fall?
Baby
Who runs to the line when the call is all?
Who guards the oceans wide and free?
Baby
Who storms the shore when the battle's near?
Who holds the line through the storm and flame?
We do
Whose flag we carry, say the name
USA
USA
