Waiting for my ship © Tony
Fallon 010118
I’ve been waiting a long time for my ship to come in
It must be coming from Poland
or maybe Berlin
I don’t know if it will come with a submarine escort
And I don’t know if it will dock in New
York or Albany
Port
In New York
Harbor they say all ships
there belong
But in New York
they don’t care and they could be wrong
I’ve checked at all the ports up and down the Hudson River
Most have promised if it shows up they will deliver
I’m not sure if all those port people take me serious
Some say ‘Oh it’s you again” and they act delirious
Where I read about my ship coming in I can’t recall
But it was either in the Bile or the Gospel of SaintPaul
On the Atlantic Ocean there
has been no recent sighting
Who should I complain to, to whom should I be writing?
I guess while I’m waiting I should not be complaining
I should be looking for someone who could give me training
I’ve only been on a ship once there must be a lot to learn
I got sea sick for four days so that is a major concern
So maybe I should just sell and instead tour on a train
Or book a trip around the word on an aero plane.
