SPEED R UN Over the green hills the bay lies, and after the harbor the sea And a grim, gaunt, grey destroyer is steaming there swiftly and free With a roll that strains her stanchions and a pitch that peels her paint And a roaring red heat in her bowels that would make , the devil faint She bucks on the crest of the billows she washes her sides in the trough, She ships twenty tons of the ocean, and then like a dog shakes it off, Her seamen cling tight to the lifelines, her black gang is gasping for air, From mess cook to skipper they curse her--but no rank outsider would dare! The smoke boils down black on her taffrail, the white foam unrolls in her wake, The hissing steam throbs in her boilers, for she has a speed run to make, She lurches and trembles and staggers, alive from antennae to keel, She reeks of burned oil and hot bearings, and rings with the pulsing of steel. Wild winds play symphonies topside, below crash the drums of the sea, And far to the west of the sunset green isles call to her and to me 3 She's battered and brine-caked and crowded--they call her ' , a salty old can-- , But those aboard grin when they curse her, and each one aboard is a man!
