You will wait in the widows peak
|
And while you watch the ships come in
|
I will take the early train
|
|
And I will take the back streets
|
Down to New Orleans
|
Before the avenues are swallowed
|
By the morning heat
|
|
And you will watch the ships come in
|
And I will take the early train
|
And I will make it home
|
|
We're stronger than
|
Before the strain had broken us
|
And there is fight in us
|
I know
|
|
That it will take more than
|
A heavy rain
|
To silence us
|
When there's so much for us
|
I know
|
|
And you will wait
|
At your post until
|
You've been relieved
|
And warn us all
|
If seas are dangerous
|
|
But you should rest
|
For a little while
|
And I will watch the ships come in
|
I'll alert the citizens
|
I'll sound the alarm
|
|
We're stronger than
|
Before the strain had broken us
|
And there is fight in us
|
I know
|
|
That it will take more than
|
A heavy rain
|
To silence us
|
When there's so much for us
|
I know
|
|
They've tethered the ships
|
In the harbor
|
They've anchored the rest
|
At sea
|
|
We're stronger than
|
Before the strain had broken us
|
And there is fight in us
|
I know
|
|
We're stronger than
|
Before the strain had broken us
|
And there is fight in us
|
I know
|
|
That it will take more than
|
A heavy rain
|
To silence us
|
When there's so much for us
|
I know
|
