I think that the ship of fools might represent heroin, or the drugs Jerry was taking. The addiction was what needed to sail away. Each line puts Jerry's struggles with drugs into a different perspective. Jerry was also the captain of the ship, which included the crew behind him. The song is ambiguous in meaning. No clear cut interpretation proven to me quite yet.
has allways been my top 3 fav jerry tunes and i would hate to relate it to his addictions think it was wrote long before it got to deep bc surely i cant get clean. but it always hit home for me living on the fringes of society and not following allong , thats my 2 cents
