about

Naval war records indicate that a medium-sized fishing trawler, Captained by one Jean LeGasse, was sunk by the German submarine U-83. LeGasse raised hell, calling this an act of piracy, illegal under old maritime laws. He didn’t seem to understand that technology had changed the very nature of war at sea. He vowed revenge, but he never got it.

lyrics

Well the waves were breaking sharply
‘cross the oaken brigantine
the misty air came up behind
and the sky was acid green

They called me Jean LaGasse
I had just turned fifty three
the day I stood upon her deck
and put her out to sea

Sweet Anna Maria
Never More, Never more I'll see

When the thunder ripped across the bow
Well I crumbled where I stood
And I woke to find she’d kept me alive
With her final piece of wood

Don't speak to me in fancy language
I can't understand
Don't flash your pretty medals
Don't you take my blood red hand

Just tell me how you let us stray
before the pirate's gun
And tell me how to find the man
who killed my dearest one

Well he says she was U83
Some magical machine
Sent by Kaiser Willy
to the banks of the

gonna find that wretched coward
gonna break his front door down
gonna wrap my hands around his neck
and put him in the ground
