Into the deep blue he went,
Drowning under the fabric of the sea
Heaving in sighs of regret

Oh! He struggled under the haling water
And yearned to return to the land
Where the sunny days melted even the chillest ice

So pale and cold he was,
Immersed in its icy ambiance
Covered with its frosty embrace

With each wave swaying him
From side to side, back and forth
Until he sank into its arctic depths

At last, he was free from a vagrant Jack life
He was now, at last,
One with the deep blue sea.
