Tekst piosenki

Jayme Dawson was the Captain of the Christian and her crew

And he flew and fought the Christian in the War of '82

Now the Christian was the finest ship 'tween here and Charlemagne

And the crew of Jayme Dawson was the same


On patrol in sector seven, keeping watch on Barber's sun

They were jumped by three light cruisers though they were no match for one

As they came to general quarters and they sent out the alarm

Jayme must have known they'd finally bought the farm


Now they say that Jayme Dawson was no man to cut and run

And they say that when he fought he had the fury of a sun

But they say he made his bargain with some power of the night

That he sold his soul to win his final fight


No one living saw that battle though the fleet was quick to leave

But at the site they found a scene no sane man would believe

Three light cruisers cut to ribbons, wreckage scattered all around

But no trace of Dawson's Christian could be found

There are stories of the Dutchman, the Celeste and Barnham's Pride
There are stories of the Horseman and the Lady at his side
But the tale that makes my blood run cold, the more because it's true
Is the tale of Jayme Dawson and his crew
Yes, the tale of Dawson's Christian and her crew


I was second mate on Hera's Dream, a freighter of the line

Running loads of precious metals to the colony on Nine

I was standing second watch of that most uneventful flight

When the pirate ships appeared out of the night


Well I thought our fate was settled, for they had us four to one

And you can't fight bloody pirates when your freighter has no gun

So we stood by to be boarded by a party yet unseen

When another ship appeared upon our screen


First I thought she was a pirate, but the vector was all wrong

Then I thought the fleet had found us, but the signal wasn't strong

And our hailing brought no answer, and I felt a sudden dread

For the stranger's shields were up and glowing red


Now the courage of that single ship is shown by very few

And I thought none but a madman would fly her as she flew

She was outgunned, she was outnumbered, but a cheer came from our lips

When she swung to fire on the pirate ships

And the stranger's beams burned brighter than all beams I'd seen before
And the stranger's shields were harder than the heart of any whore
And the battle rent the ether, as we watched and shook our heads
Four pirate ships she cut to bloody shreds
Four pirate ships were cut to bloody shreds


Just as quickly as it started then the fighting was all done

For the pirate ships were shattered and the stranger's ship had won

She matched v and lay beside us, and we watched her full of awe

Then she dropped her shields and this is what we saw


There were thirty holes clear through her and a gash along one side

And we knew that when it happened, every soul on board had died

Then she rolled to show her markings, and we read them and we knew

The fate of Jayme Dawson and his crew

She was the Christian... and a grave for all her crew


Then she turned as if to leave us, but instead began to fade

First her hull, and then her bulkheads, as we trembled there afraid

But there are twenty men who'll swear with me, the last to slip from view

Were the bones of Jayme Dawson and his crew

Dead white bones of Jayme Dawson and his crew

There are stories of the Dutchman, the Celeste and Barnham's Pride
There are stories of the Horseman and the Lady at his side
But the tale that makes my blood run cold, 'cause I know that it's true
Is the tale of Jayme Dawson and his crew
Yes, the tale of Dawson's Christian and her crew
They're out there... Jayme Dawson and his crew!
