沃尔特·惠特曼这首诗是为了纪念被暗杀的美国总统林肯。在诗中的Captain指的是总统亚伯拉罕-林肯，ship指的是美国，暗喻林肯总统是美国的舵手，最终被暗杀去世。电影《死亡诗社》中的Robin Williams曾引用过这个称呼。
《Scotty》
朗读者：Allan Taylor
Scotty checked out this morning
in his customary way
with a glass of good malt whisky in his hand
at least that's what they say
he didn't leave much owing
when he finally paid the bill
maybe he should've settled a few good scores
but now i guess he never will
i remember the time he told me
we were born under a golden star
and maybe sometimes we couldn't find it
and the journey seemed too far
but it was just a matter of hanging in
and we'd get there in the end
well it seems you're going to find it
my crazy， beautiful friend
“Mr.scott has left the building”
the big old 12 strings is packed away
the gig is finally over and Scotty's on his way
but there's a song i still keep singing
and i'll never lose the tune
cause Scotty's out there somewhere
and he's howling at the moon
he's howling at the moon
i can hear him, he's howling at the moon
Scotty's out there somewhere
he's howling at the moon
斯科特今天早上离开了
以他习惯的方式
手里拿着一杯上好的威士忌
至少他们是这么说的
当他终于付完帐单
他并没有留下太多财产
也许他应该回敬一下那些亏欠他的
但现在我想他是不会了
我记得有一次他告诉我
我们是生于一颗金星下
有时，我们找不到它
而且旅程似乎太远
但这只是时间问题
我们迟早会到达那儿
啊，看来你就要找到它了
我疯狂而美丽的朋友
“斯科特先生已经离开大楼”
大12弦旧乐器已经打包带走了
演出终于结束，斯科特已上路
但有一首歌我一直唱
我永远不会忘记那曲调
因为斯科特就在某个地方
他在月亮上高声歌唱
我能听见他，在月亮上高声歌唱
斯科特就在某个地方
他在月亮上高声歌唱
