The USS Enterprise (CV-6), also known as the "Big E," was a Yorktown-class aircraft carrier commissioned in 1938 for the United States Navy. Distinguished as one of the most decorated ships in World War II, she played a pivotal role in major battles including Pearl Harbor, Midway, and the Solomon Islands Campaign. Known for her resilience and valiant service, the Enterprise earned 20 battle stars, more than any other U.S. warship during the conflict. She was decommissioned in 1947 and scrapped in 1958, but her legacy endures as a symbol of American naval power and heroism.

Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
I am the Big E, proud and strong,
A Yorktown-class, where heroes belong,
From the 1930s, I took to the sea,
Seventh of my name, USS Enterprise, that's me.
(Chorus)
Oh, the battles I've seen, the storms I've braved,
Through the fire and the fury, so many I saved,
From Pearl Harbor's dawn to the war's final plea,
I am the Big E, the heart of the sea.
(Verse 2)
December dawn at Pearl, I sent my birds to fly,
Caught in the crossfire, some fell from the sky,
We heard the call, the bombs did fall,
With valor and might, we stood through it all.
(Chorus)
Oh, the battles I've seen, the storms I've braved,
Through the fire and the fury, so many I saved,
From Pearl Harbor's dawn to the war's final plea,
I am the Big E, the heart of the sea.
(Verse 3)
Raiding Marshall Islands, we took to the fight,
Kwajalein, Wotje, in the dead of night,
Through Midway’s clash, where giants did fall,
With bombers and fighters, we answered the call.
(Chorus)
Oh, the battles I've seen, the storms I've braved,
Through the fire and the fury, so many I saved,
From Pearl Harbor's dawn to the war's final plea,
I am the Big E, the heart of the sea.
(Bridge)
Iwo Jima’s sands, we held the sky,
Okinawa’s shores, where the kamikaze fly,
Bombs and bullets, and flames so high,
Yet I stood tall, my flag did fly.
(Verse 4)
Through Kyūshū and Honshū, we carved our path,
In the heart of darkness, we unleashed our wrath,
Final blows from above, the war's cruel end,
To Puget Sound I sailed, to mend and tend.
(Chorus)
Oh, the battles I've seen, the storms I've braved,
Through the fire and the fury, so many I saved,
From Pearl Harbor's dawn to the war's final plea,
I am the Big E, the heart of the sea.
(Outro)
Now rest I take, in history’s page,
A legacy of valor, that will never age,
Remember my name, the tales I tell,
Of the Big E’s fight, through heaven and hell.
(Chorus)
Oh, the battles I've seen, the storms I've braved,
Through the fire and the fury, so many I saved,
From Pearl Harbor's dawn to the war's final plea,
I am the Big E, the heart of the sea.
