Okay, this is cool as hell. The original version is a Pete Seeger song (here are the lyrics ⚠️ ↗), but I haven't heard it. I have heard the version performed by Tim Robbins (yep, the actor) and a group of kids on background vocals. It's a story song about a ship's voyage that goes awry. A sample of the lyrics:

The navigator said to the engineer,
I think our radio's dead.
I can hear but I can't send,
And there's bad weather ahead.
The pilot said to the co-pilot,
Our right engine's gone.
But if we can make it over these mountains,
Perhaps I can set her down.
All my children of the sun!

You can hear it here️ ↗, but it's not the best quality. Listen to it on Spotify instead.
