Lyrics:
On a clear April day, 1963 Took a memorable ride On a silver submarine One hundred-plus men John, Wesley, Harvey, and me All aboard the SSN-593 Goin' down, goin' down Goin' down, down, down Down "Harvey to base, we're at 1,000 feet Jimmy's doin' real good I think he's getting ahold of this thing" Then the rattle of pipes Then the hiss of the steam I was the man of the hour 'Til the alarm bells started ringing Goin' down, goin' down Goin' down, down, down Down Oh, Thresher We can't take no more Slow pirouette into the arms Of the ocean floor Wonder and fear Unending black sea Held everyone's gaze In a quiet humility Mother ocean, we are At the mercy of thee Like children in uniform Balancing on your knee Goin' down, goin' down Goin' down, down, down Down Oh, Thresher We can't take no more Slow pirouette into the arms Of the ocean floor Oh, Thresher We can't take no more And slow pirouette into the arms Of the ocean floor
