A Space Shanty heard through the space lanes when a Caterpillar flies by.
(Verse 1)
Oh, we sail through the stars, in our ship so grand,
Carrying cargo from every spaceport, in every land.
With a hull full of goods, and hearts full of cheer,
We're the crew of the Caterpillar, have no fear!
(Chorus)
Heave ho, me hearties, let's fly through the night,
In our trusty Caterpillar, shining bright.
Through asteroid fields, and nebulas blue,
There's no corner of the cosmos we can't pursue!
(Verse 2)
From Terra to Stanton, and systems afar,
We navigate the starways, no matter how far.
With the command module guiding, our course so true,
In the vastness of space, there's no crew like our crew!
(Chorus)
(Outro)
So here's to the Caterpillar, our ship so fine,
Through the Milky Way, her lights do shine.
With a crew so brave, and a captain so skilled,
In the annals of space, our tales will be filled!
