I'm Csailing down the summer Fwind
I got Cwhiskers on my G7chin
And I Flike the mood I'm Cin
As I while away the Ftime of day
In the Clee of Christian G7Island 
CTall and strong she dips and Freels
I Ccall her Silver G7Heels
And she Ftells me how she Cfeels
She's a good old boat and she'll Fstay afloat
CThrough the toughest gales and keep G7smilin'
But for Cone more day she would Flike to stay
In the G7lee of Christian CIsland 
I'm sailing down the summer Fday
Where the Cfish and seagulls G7play
I put my Ftroubles all Caway
And when the gales comes up FI'll fill my cup
With the Cwhiskey of the G7Highlands
She's a Cgood old ship and she'll Fmake the trip
From the G7lee of Christian CIsland 
Tall and strong she slips Falong
I Csing for her a G7song
And she Fleans into the Cwind
She's a good old boat and she'll Fstay afloat
Through the Ctoughest gales and keep G7smilin'
When the Csummer ends we will Frest again
In the G7lee of Christian CIsland
