Up She Rises

When she leaves safe harbour, headin' for the fishin' grounds, on the waters again
And ya wave goodbye to the friends onshore, steamin' with a northern wind
The waves they roll, and the wind's pickin' up, and the night is comin' on fast
She turns her back to the island shore, through the high waves she will blast

Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
The water rolls off of her deck
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
Guided through the sea by her Captain Jack
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She's headed straight into the wind
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She goes back down, but she rises again

In the mornin', the winds are calm, and the waters, they glisten with the risin' sun
The captain says, "All men on deck, there's a day's work to be done"
We climb the rails, and we hit the deck, we've reached the fishin' grounds at last
We work the day and hear the ol' skipper say, "There's a wind storm comin' up fast"

Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
The water rolls off of her deck
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
Guided through the sea by her Captain Jack
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She's headed straight into the wind
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She goes back down, but she rises again

When the catch is made, we steam for home to a harbour safe and warm
For a restless night we toss and turn in the winds and waves of a storm
In a northern gale and a 10 foot swell, she's a-cuttin' through the mighty sea
The sound of a song is heard from below, the men you can hear 'em sing

Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
The water rolls off of her deck
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
Guided through the sea by her Captain Jack
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She's headed straight into the wind
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She goes back down, but she rises again

Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
The water rolls off of her deck
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
Guided through the sea by her Captain Jack
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She's headed straight into the wind
Oh, oh, oh, up she rises
She goes back down, but she rises again
