He's tough as nails;
    He won't take for an answer "no";
Billow'd are his sails;
    He's a forthright, determined fellow.

His mind is steadfast;
    His eyes are set firm;
His step is true and sure to last:
    These his noble heart will affirm.

He's stood the test of time;
    He's weather'd all kinds of gales;
His detractors he's left behind,
    For, the fact is, he's tough as nails!
