We're the ones that had to sail the course

The course of friendship and trust, of course

Always heading for the eye of the storm

Getting stuck in one way, shape or form



Like an army we followed your lead

We cried with you and we watched you bleed

Loyalty at its ultimate

We paid our dues and this is what we get?



There was a time when we were family

We looked after you, and you looked after we

We flew your flag and defended it

But like a blind man you just ignored it



Through heavy rain

Through all the pain

Through heavy winds

Through all our sins

We hold her steady!

We hold her steady!

We hold her steady!



STEADY AS SHE GOES



We've stood our time, and only time will tell

For awhile you had us under a spell

Now it's broken, and you can go to hell

We're tired of you pissing in our wishing well



Friendship comes and friendship goes

Where it stops nobody knows
