After hearing the theme song from Captain Chesapeake while at Camden Yards on Saturday for another Orioles loss, I became obsessed with finding the theme song. According to Wikipedia, the tune was “Stumbling” by the Three Suns. Thanks to Amazon.com, I found the MP3, and purchased it.
After that, I could hear the opening poem used when Capt. Chesapeake began:
A shipwrecked sailor found himself in a plight. Lost at sea he was really a sight.
He swam and swam ’til he thought he’d die, when a wondrous sight appeared to his eye.
A derelict boat that saved his life and put an end to his watery strife.
And cue the music…
