Verse 1

I was Dborn under the stars,

Never Ameant to journey fDar

From all the faces and the place

That I cGalled Ahome

And my Dfather lived the same

And his fAather before Dhim

But now I see in my son's eyes

Something Ghas cAhanged

And the Gsmoke it has stopped rAising

From the Gchimney up the Droad

And the light no longer sAhines over the dGoor

Last yDear I lent a Ahand

The haul the Dboats unto the lEmand

They've been lDyin' there for nAineteen months Or Gmore

And I Dwonder will they Alie there evermDore

Verse 2

Wasn't Dmany years ago

That the Amen 'round here would Dgo

Out in there skiffs and haul their traps out Gon the Abay

And then Dshortly they'd return

Loaded dAown from stem to sDtern

DAnd we'd off the fish then stow the gear GawAay

Now the Gwaters are as Abarren

As the cGliff that guard the Dcove

And catch the north wind Ablowin' off the sGhore

And I Dwonder how an Aocean

Turns as Dlifeless as a sEmtone

And I Dwonder can the sAea revive once Gmore

And I Dwonder will they Alie there everDmore

Solo

Verse 3

Well I Dhear some people say

We'd be Abetter off to Dstay ashore

And Dtrain for jobs outside the fishGerAy

Now wouldn't DI look like a fool?

To go tAraipsin' off to Dschool

After forty years of livin' oGf the Asea

Now my sGon he's barely Atwenty-one

And hGandy at the Dtrawl

For Dyears he helped my Afish the LabraGdor

Now he's Dmovin' to OnAtario befGore the first snowEmfall

Dad theirs Dnothin' left for Ame 'round here no Gmore

And I Dwonder will I Asee his children Gborn

And I Dwonder will they lAie there everDmore
