He's a silver nitrate shadow On a field unbroken white When a ship comes into focus See him in the sweet harbor light As a boy he went to wonder As a man he went to sea Now when pirates come to plunder He defeats them effortlessly Sailor Jack Sailor Jack Sailor Jack Sailor Jack He feeds on broken new horizons He sees a great big flash of light No wrecks come (?) Not as long as Jack is on (?) (Chorus) Sailor Jack, well he's alright He knows a half-hitch, he knows a bow-tie He knows what all good sailors know The skies above tell him where to go He knows the sea and the water signs He knows the landmarks, he knows the shoreline He knows a girl in every port, he's a good sport Good sport, good sport, good sport Jack He makes a great big (?) Where the heart grows strong and pure Where the ghosts of (?) Captain Jack will always endure (Chorus)
