A hilarious, toe-tapping tribute to the United States Navy — anchors aweigh, shenanigans ahoy! Sailors, submariners, and salty dogs — this one’s for you! From sea duty struggles to Marine rivalry and the chaos at home when Dad’s on shore leave, get ready for a Navy anthem that’ll make you laugh and shout, “I need shore leave!”

Because nothing says adventure like saltwater, sarcasm, and sea legs.

(Intro)
Oh the Navy life’s a rollercoaster,Ships and squids and a salty toaster!Marines might grunt, but we set sail,With coffee strong and skin so pale!

(Verse 1)
Got a sailor’s tan — that’s pasty white,Been on sea duty every night.My wife’s at home, she runs the show,I break one lamp — “Oh no, you don’t!”
We swab the decks, we scrape the rust,We trust in ships we barely trust.We drink our coffee black as sin,And patch the hull with duct tape thin!

(Chorus)
Anchors aweigh, we’re squids on parade,Dodgin’ Marines throwin’ shade!From salty waves to the liberty bell,We raise some hell in a floating hotel!Hardships at sea, smooth wife on land,Come back home — it’s outta my hands!We’re the Navy, baby, that’s no lie,We float, we fight, we fry!

(Verse 2)
Marine Corps calls us Uber rides,But we bring their tanks with Navy pride!From Midway’s blast to Top Gun’s flair,We’ve launched more jets than they’ve got hair!
My home’s a ship, my bed’s a rack,My back says ouch, my socks smell whack.The wife’s been handling kids and bills,While I’ve been dodging sea gull spills!

(Bridge)
“Babe, I’m home!”“Take off your boots!”“But honey, I’m a war hero!”“You’re dripping on the new carpet!”Cue trumpet flourish

(Final )
Anchors aweigh, we’re squids on parade,Dodgin’ Marines throwin’ shade!From salty waves to the liberty bell,We raise some hell in a floating hotel!Hardships at sea, smooth wife on land,Come back home — it’s outta my hands!We’re the Navy, baby, proud and loud,Wave that flag above the crowd!
