He led me down to the docks
In the middle of the night
Told me he was the captain
The man dressed up in white
Pack up your six-string boy
Lock and load it tight
Aye aye Captain I said
To the man dressed up in white
And as I turned to go
He looked me in the eye
And he said son be careful
The sea is filled with lead
And dreamers who let themselves die
But I know you'll find the light
And as I got into the boat
He vanished out of sight
Someday I hope to thank the man
The man dressed up in white
And as I turned to go
He looked me in the eye
And he said son be careful
The sea is filled with lead
And dreamers who let themselves die
But I know you'll find the light
He said I know you'll find the light
He said I know you'll find the light
He said I know you'll find the light
You gotta play your soul
Wrap it up
Then send it into flight
He said I know you'll find the light
