a salty dog

• procol harum ait olan tam bir denizci parçası. arkaplandaki martı çığlıklarına kilitlenmenin kaçınılmaz olduğu ağır parça.

• "all hands on deck, we've run afloat!" i heard the captain cry
  "explore the ship, replace the cook: let no one leave alive!"
  across the straits, around the horn: how far can sailors fly?
  a twisted path, our tortured course, and no one left alive
  
  we sailed for parts unknown to man, where ships come home to die
  no lofty peak, nor fortress bold, could match our captain's eye
  upon the seventh seasick day we made our port of call
  a sand so white, and sea so blue, no mortal place at all
  
  we fired the gun, and burnt the mast, and rowed from ship to shore
  the captain cried, we sailors wept: our tears were tears of joy
  now many moons and many junes have passed since we made land
  a salty dog, this seaman's log: your witness my own hand
• allahim gece gece al canimi dedirten brooker & reid parcasi. ayni zamanda procol harum'un 1969 cikisli albumune adini veren sarki. dikkat cekici bir diger unsur gerek gary brooker gerek keith reids'in cok iyi birer balikci olmalari.
• içindeki parçalar şöyledir:
  
  a salty dog
  too much between us
  boredom
  wreck of the hesperus
  crucifiction lane
  the milk of human kindness
  the devil came from kansas
  juicy john pink
  all this and more
