Out in the Atlantic Ocean, Patrolling up and down, Was a Canadian corvette About to win renown. Speeding through the water, Lifting her bow in pride, Was the sea’s dreadnaughty daughter, The mighty Summerside. She was up there for one purpose, Which shouldn’t be hard to guess— Looking for the periscope Of a German sub, no less. It was three o’clock in the afternoon, The weather was like spring, When in the cabin on the bridge They heard a little ping. Trained for instant action, The crew rushed to and fro. They knew there was no time to lose And they all knew where to go. Within a matter of moments The ocean was a-churn With depth charge after depth charge Starboard, port and astern. The battle lasted for hours, It was quite a little row. The German sub let go a fish Which crossed the corvette’s bow. But there was no doubt of the victor, And it soon came to an end, With a final pattern of charges That paid a dividend. That was just another example Of the Canadian Navy’s might, How they drive the German sub¬ marines Completely out of sight. So now’s the time to do your part Before another day is gone. Buy War Savings Stamps to help Canadian corvettes to carry on.
