James T. Slater - Guys Named Captain Lyrics




Guys named Captain are always characters
Living by the water somewhere in the Americas
South or Central, or some Virgin island
Barefoot and sun kissed, and always smiling

Guys named Captain, aren't haters, they're lovers
Living life large, or largely undercover
Dive bars and cocktails, waitresses and tall tales
Chasing the sun, run aground or full sail, like

Captain Outrageous, and Captain Tony,
a painter and a sailor, old Key West cronies
floating on the breeze the salt of the sea
ornery tattooed and laughing
...Guys named Captain

Casanovas and entrepreneurs
Full of bravado that's half the allure
The wink of the eye, the shadowy past
Laugh lines from blowing smoke up your glass, like

Captain Bligh and Captain Kidd
Mutiny on the Bounty, loose cannons in the wind
buccaneers with nothing to fear
who go down with the ship, last man standing
...Guys named Captain

Guys named Captain, have sons and daughters
Flesh and blood, like my father,,,
Captain Vic who played the mandolin
And when they're gone, man you miss them
Guys named Captain....Guys Named Captain
