Overview
THE BALLAD OF THE MARY CELESTE song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

Anywhere, anytime that you pull on the line
You can catch any fish in the rainbow
Where a stream flows between a mirage and a dream
From the mouth of a giant volcano

From New York in the winter eighteen-seven-two
The Dei Gratia set course for Spain
She arrived in Gibraltar a week overdue
With a riddle no one could explain

On the 23rd morning she came on a craft
That was drifting like fog from the west
The crew were amazed that the ship was afloat
With no man on the Mary Celeste

There's a face in the sea that they say never sleeps
And it lies with its eyes always open
Though it knows every secret that's lost in the deep
Its silence will never be broken

When they boarded the derelict no one was around
They were filled with a feeling of dread
Not a trace of the captain or crew could be found
Who had sailed on the Mary Celeste

Where does the wind begin?
The wind blows in from nowhere
The widows begged the wind
To send them back again
"O please Lord please blow them home!"

If you make for the islands you'd better beware
Of the fate you are setting in motion
Anytime anywhere there is something out there
That can catch any fish in the ocean

Now it's rumored the windjammer must be a jinx
Cause she's ruined each master who's bought her
But the Company claims they've been brought to the brink
And they have to put her in the water

That the vessel's okay the inspectors agree
And surely they ought to know best
But no sailor today wants to put her to sea
None will sail on the Mary Celeste

Where does the wind begin?
The wind blows in from nowhere
You cannot tell the wind
To set you on your course again
But please Lord please blow us home
Please Lord please send us home...
