Deckside Drill

Hear the foghorn in the deep While the

city is

asleep,

yeah We secure the perimeter We are the shields on the open

blue Holding the line with a chosen crew From the Atlantic to

pacific tides Nowhere to run,

nowhere to hide Anchors aweigh,

yeah we make the wave Only the strong and the bold and

brave Deep in the gray we are standing tall Ready to answer

the nation's call

Deck-plates cold but the engine's hot Target locked,

yeah we claim the spot Out in the deep where the sonar

pings We are the kings under iron wings Destroyer class,

yeah we split the swell Ringing the bell,

hear the story tell Haze-gray fleet in the morning mist Writing our

names on the honor list

Radar spinning, we watch the screen Deepest waters,

the silent queen Submarine crew down below the pressure Discipline deep,

that's the only measure

No retreat, yeah we hold the station Frontline guard for a sleeping

nation

We are the shields on the open blue Holding the line with

a chosen crew From the Atlantic to pacific tides Nowhere to run,

nowhere to hide Anchors aweigh,

yeah we make the wave Only the strong and the bold and

brave Deep in the gray we are standing tall Ready to answer

the nation's call

Anchors

aweigh...

Deep blue... We stand guard.
