Put into port, the Shoals are calling:
Come where the lighthouse gleams.
Come in to rest, and furl your sails,
And lose yourself in dreams.
Blown by the wind, tossed by the tide,
Heaving hard from side to side,
Put into port, the Shoals are calling,
And lose yourself in dreams.

Drop anchor deep in Gosport Harbor
And find yourself in dreams;
Ride lightly now on gentle waves,
Down which the moonlight streams.
High above, stars shine white,
Silver lights against the night;
So ride a while in Gosport Harbor,
And find yourself in dreams.

Sail out, sail out, from Gosport Harbor
And rouse yourself from dreams.
Sail out, sail out, the sun has risen,
Go face the golden beams.
Breasting on into the light,
Ploughing on toward cities bright -
Sail out, sail out, from Gosport Harbor,
And bring life to your dreams.
