I WORKED THE WHARVES(when i was young

when ships still were seen
as a way of getting around
i scraped the rust from the bottom of each hulk
slave labor/we were galley slaves
deep in the dark of ships
i scraped a living when young
Now ships are stories /ghost ships gone
Cruise ships travel the world for a song
They still dump waste into the deep
i still scrape a living from stories like these
