the BRYCE CANYON BUSY BEAVER He must go down to the sea again, a sailor and quite a guy, And all he asks is a smart ship and radar to steer her by. And a western flick and a soft bunk and the steam turbine ' s quaking, And Long Beach smog on the BC ' s face or a Subic dawn breaking. He must go down to the sea again, for the coll of the orient wide. Is a wild call and a clear call ( ' You speak, Joe I, that may not be denied And all he asks is a liberty day with the native girls complying, And a little cash and a means to dash and two feet flying.

And lots of sleep and a pat on the back when the long tour is over. He did go down to the sea again, he sailed her westwardly, And all he asks is a chance to tell, the BC ' s tale to thee.
