MASTER AND MAN (Ben Hecht) The Captain stood where a Captain should For the Law of the Sea is grim; The Owner romped while the ship was swamped And no law bothered him. The Captain stood where the Captain should When a Captain's ship goes down But the Owner led when the women fled, For an Owner must not drown. The Captain sank as a man of Rank, While his Owner turned away; The Captain's grave was his bridge and brave, He earned his seaman's pay. To hold your place in the ghastly face of Death on the Sea at Night Is a Seaman's job, but to flee with the mob Is an Owner's Noble Right. @sea filename[ MSTRMAN RG 8note Sheet
