Dreamboat
Launched off the stocks, bound to sail the main
With one hundred and fifty brisk young men
Well picked and chosen every one
And William Glenn was the captain's name
He was a fine and a tall young man
As fine a sailor as sailed the sea
And we were sailing to New Barbary
On the first of April, then we set sail
Blessed with a fine and a prosperous gale

My Baby Left Me
You're sleeping son, I know
But, really, this can't wait
I wanted to explain
Before it gets too late
For your mother and me

Why spoil your little dreams
Why put you through the hell
Life is no fairytale
As one day you will know
But now you're just a child
I'll stay here and watch you grow
Because you're all I have, my boy
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy
