Perhaps you are referring to John Masefield's, "All I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by" from his poem Sea Fever.

Sea Fever

; I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, ; And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by, ; And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking, ; And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.

; I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide ; Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; ; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, ; And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

; I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life, ; To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife; ; And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, ; And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over. John Masefield
