Follow in my wake 
You've not that much at stake 
For I have plowed the seas 
And smoothed the troubled waters 
Come along let's have some fun 
The hard work has been done 
We'll barrel roll into the sun 
Just for starters 

Just for starters 
Barometer's my soup 
I'm descended from a deckhand on a sloop 
I travel on the songlines 
That only dreamers see 
Not known for predictability 

Come and follow in our wake 
You've not that much at stake 
For we have plowed the seas 
And smoothed the troubled waters 
Come along let's have some fun 
Seems our work is done 
We'll barrel roll into the sun 
Just for starters 

Sail the main course 
In a simple sturdy craft 
Keep her well stocked 
With short stories and long laughs 
Go fast enough to get there 
But slow enough to see 
Moderation seems to be the key 

Constantly searchin' 
Oh my eyes have seen some horizons 
And I've crossed the ocean for more than just thrills 
No I'm not the first 
Won't be the last 
You lust for the future 
But treasure the past 

Follow in my wake 
You've not as much at stake 
For I have plowed the seas 
And smoothed the troubled waters 
Come along let's have some fun 
The hard work has been done 
We'll barrel roll into the sun 
Just for starters 
We'll barrel roll into the sun 
Just for starters 
We'll barrel roll into the sun 
Just for starters
