The Waterman
Wake up in the morning 'fore the sun rears his head
the world is peaceful now
get my coffee cut the radio on
check the weather on the sound
says the gale's blowin in from the northeast
30-40 knots today
It's march first
the water's cold and the wind's sure howling
chills a man right through his bones
but my pots are set the crabs are thick and the price is soarin'
I gotta work them till they're gone
Nobody said this would be easy
working the water everyday
my boots are on cause those crabs won't last long
just then I hear her sweet voice say
"Darlin' don't go,
Darlin' don't go
you're boat is too small
for the waves and the blow
stay here with me,
it's warm by the fire
I'll need you tomorrow,
so darling don't go."
Nobody said this would be easy
workin' the water everyday.
I love this life that I've chosen.
I'll love that woman when she says
"Darling don't go,
Darling don't go.
Your boat is too small for the waves and the blow.
stay here with me
it's warm by the fire
I'll need you tomorrow,
so darling don't go.
I'll need you tomorrow,
so darling don't go.
the world is peaceful now
get my coffee cut the radio on
check the weather on the sound
says the gale's blowin in from the northeast
30-40 knots today
It's march first
the water's cold and the wind's sure howling
chills a man right through his bones
but my pots are set the crabs are thick and the price is soarin'
I gotta work them till they're gone
Nobody said this would be easy
working the water everyday
my boots are on cause those crabs won't last long
just then I hear her sweet voice say
"Darlin' don't go,
Darlin' don't go
you're boat is too small
for the waves and the blow
stay here with me,
it's warm by the fire
I'll need you tomorrow,
so darling don't go."
Nobody said this would be easy
workin' the water everyday.
I love this life that I've chosen.
I'll love that woman when she says
"Darling don't go,
Darling don't go.
Your boat is too small for the waves and the blow.
stay here with me
it's warm by the fire
I'll need you tomorrow,
so darling don't go.
I'll need you tomorrow,
so darling don't go.
