New American

[Verse 1: Tim Armstrong]

Yankee cutter, trade wind breeze

Wayward soul on the seven lost seas

We ran in boulder 'till it was time to go

Worked the Klondike in the ice and snow

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong & Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen & Matt Freeman]

As I watched the sun go down

The night is just begun

This is my home now

For I am a new American

[Verse 2: Tim Armstrong]

Eddie the Butcher was a stevedore

We sailed together to the Singapore shore

That's where we met Calico Jim

We drank his money and his bathtub gin

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong & Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen & Matt Freeman]

As I watched the sun go down

The night is just begun

This is my home now

For I am a new American

[Verse 3: Tim Armstrong]

Sixteen days, dead-end street

Ironclad pride of the fleet

As long as I can live to tell

The Butcher and I can still raise hell

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong & Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen & Matt Freeman]

As I watched the sun go down

The night is just begun

This is my home now

For I am a new American
