Then show it gently, but firmly, out again.

An improvement on your bizarre Bowie post a few days ago, Steve - you're thinking of EJ's Billy Bones and the White Bird from his Rock of the Westies album:

Take the wheel I hear the timbers creaking
Take the wheel I think this ship is sinking
Jamaica seems so far and I've been thinking
Old Billy Bones has gone to sea and quit his dockside drinking

Check it out, check it out, check it out...

Cheers.

Good guess - but it was '75.
