Nautical song titles

All this boring talk about anchors got me singing to myself:

"Delta Dawn..."

Then there is anything by Bruce Springsteen

Remember M&W - "Boom ooh yatatata!"

Any more?
Must be subtle or cryptic, Sailing by Rod Stewart is too obvious

Let her go down - Steeleye Span, dedicated to the YM Crash Test yacht?

[Whiskey Bravo]

Otis Redding

Correct, although an arguably 'better' version is around done by Neil Young with Booker T & the MG's live in Finsbury Park in either 1991 or 93. Can't remember which without finding either the t-shirt or the tape.

Will your anchor hold? Too literal?

Will your anchor hold in the storms of life,
When the clouds unfold their wings of strife?
When the strong tides lift, and the cables strain,
Will your anchor drift or firm remain?

We have an anchor that keeps the soul
Stedfast and sure while the billows roll,
Fastened to the Rock which cannot move,
Grounded firm and deep in the Savior's love.

It is safely moored, 'twill the storm withstand,
For 'tis well secured by the Savior's hand;
And the cables passed from His heart to mine,
Can defy the blast, through strength divine.

It will firmly hold in the straits of fear,
When the breakers have told the reef is near;
Though the tempest rave and the wild winds blow,
Not an angry wave shall our bark o'erflow.

It will surely hold in the floods of death,
When the waters cold chill our latest breath;
On the rising tide it can never fail,
While our hopes abide within the veil.

 

[MissFitz]

Love for Sail
Thank Heaven for Little Furls
I Get a Kicker out of You
