Bad Acid and Boogie - The Grayhorn (Tribute to Captain Phil of the Fishing Vessel Cornelia Marie.)

DISCLAIMER! I own NONE of the video content. But the song and lyrics are all mine. Lyrics:

"The Grayhorn"

That old salt, he gambled daily.
Through the depths and through the night
With smoke pouring out his chimney
From the fire in his eyes
And come the moon, his wake's still trailing
Guided on by satellites
A mans gotta make a living
A mans gotta make his life.

Now Cornelia Marie, she just can't sleep
beneathe these swells
And their Captain sails in heaven
after years of fishing hell
To Cornelia Marie, and all her crew
i'll wish them well.
And if your Captains not in heaven
I'll bet he's giving the Devil hell.

The dark waters blind the living
But clear tears have never lied
But it was all the same big ocean
In Phil Harris's young mind
Then the news came, like a rogue wave
and the whole fleet was shook.
Destiny had claimed the man
that the coldest seas never could.

So even if you're just a stranger
fill a glass up with these men
Mix some whiskey, cream, and kaluha
and drink a toast to all lost friends
But Captain Phil from up there knows
that there's still so much work to do
He's coming in with the sunrise bring
us some good ju ju.

I record under the name "Bad Acid and Boogie".

I LOVE this!  What an awesome job! This is the most beautiful tribute I have seen for Phil. Wow. I'm speechless (and that doesn't happen much). I think the boys will really like this, guys. Great job!
