Grand Banks (Edgar-Kneeland-Jones) Emus Way Music / BMI ©2000

Early in the morning, chill in the air
What I'd do to stay right here
In your arms, it's far too hard
The captains calling and dealing the cards

And I'm gone, I'm going away, away
Tears in your eyes I bring with me out to sea, to sea

We've loaded the fuel and we've checked all the gear
Water's like glass, whispering fear
Set our course, Down East to the Banks
Three days time, we be pulling the lines

And I'm gone, I'm going away, away
This feeling in my bones, just can't shake

Sky's getting dark, the winds howling again
Where you rise up to heaven, get smashed down to Hell
Dog down the hatches, we're going in

Early in the morning, chill in the air

And I'm gone, I'm going away, away
Tears in your eyes I bring with me out to sea, to sea
