Lyric discussion by pirates118 

At Seven P.M. a main hatchway caved in, he said Fellas, it's been good t'know ya

I think thats the most... disturbing... I don't know if thats the right word, but you know what I mean... lyric in a song that I've ever heard.

I can't even imagine what that must have been like to go through that.

it felt odd for a song of such length to be played on the radio so often. even more strange for one with such gloomy words and music.

yes that line "...been good t'know ya," always stood out for me. also the church bell ringing 29 times. direct, and not too abstract. when this first was popular, I was ten years old.
