Chesapeake

Southbound clouds north wind blowing
Keeps me away from where I'm going
Pine trees swaying in the breeze
Pelicans still flying with grace and ease
Boats seeking shelter in the lee
Cold front is here on the Chesapeake

Cookout tonight at the breezeway café
This one's for schooners, saving the bay
Light a fire, stack some wood
With friends and music it feels so good
Can't sail north that's fine with me
Can't beat October on the Chesapeake

Early morning out on the bay
Sunshine starts to make its way
Waterman he works at his trade
Steaming out as darkness fades
Out on the water some of what you see
It's part of life on the Chesapeake

Northbound clouds there's a south wind blowing
Sending me where I'm going
Catch the breeze get underway
Osprey calls you to another day
Life moves slowly you're out of reach
Swing to the tide of the Chesapeake
