[Verse 1] At dawn she cuts the bay White wake on a steel-blue line Hands on the wheel, salt on her sleeves Same grin every time Dock boys nod, she just waves Counts the ropes and checks the tide By noon she’s gone with a cooler full And a spark in her eyes [Pre-Chorus] But when the sun goes low She swaps the helm for a spotlight glow One sip and she’s gone You know she’s gone [Chorus] Dee See Ex, Dee See Ex (Dee See Ex) Iced coffee in her veins Dee See Ex, Dee See Ex (Dee See Ex) She burns both sides of the day Captain by dawn And she roars by night Dee See Ex Keeps the whole sea alive [Verse 2] Chrome mic in a black jean jacket Crowd pressed tight to the rail She kicks off a boot, hits the first note And the whole room tips like a sail Her hair’s a storm in the backlight Her laugh cuts through the haze Then she’s back on deck with the engine growl Before the morning breaks [Pre-Chorus] One more sip, she’s set Cold cup beads on her knuckles wet And when that engine starts She steals your heart [Chorus] Dee See Ex, Dee See Ex (Dee See Ex) Iced coffee in her veins Dee See Ex, Dee See Ex (Dee See Ex) She burns both sides of the day Captain by dawn And she roars by night Dee See Ex Keeps the whole sea alive [Bridge] She’s got salt in her tattoo lines Stage smoke in her smile If you ask how she does it all She’ll say, “Baby, I’m in style” Then she lifts that cup Like a trophy in the air And dives right back into the roar Like she’s already there [Chorus] Dee See Ex, Dee See Ex (Dee See Ex) Iced coffee in her veins Dee See Ex, Dee See Ex (Dee See Ex) She burns both sides of the day Captain by dawn And she roars by night Dee See Ex Keeps the whole sea alive [Outro] Captain by dawn Rock star by night Dee See Ex Blazing through the tide
