New American

[Verse 1: Tim Armstrong]
Yankee cutter, trade wind breeze
Wayward soul on the seven lost seas
We ran in boulder 'till it was time to go
Worked the Klondike in the ice and snow

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong & Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen & Matt Freeman]
As I watched the sun go down
The night is just begun
This is my home now
For I am a new American

[Verse 2: Tim Armstrong]
Eddie the Butcher was a stevedore
We sailed together to the Singapore shore
That's where we met Calico Jim
We drank his money and his bathtub gin

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong & Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen & Matt Freeman]
As I watched the sun go down
The night is just begun
This is my home now
For I am a new American

[Verse 3: Tim Armstrong]
Sixteen days, dead-end street
Ironclad pride of the fleet
As long as I can live to tell
The Butcher and I can still raise hell

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong & Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen & Matt Freeman]
As I watched the sun go down
The night is just begun
This is my home now
For I am a new American
