[00:00:00] Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald - Gordon Lightfoot

[00:00:03] Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

[00:00:16] The legend lives on from the chippewa on down

[00:00:20] Of the big lake they call gitche gumee

[00:00:26] The lake it is said never gives up her dead

[00:00:29] When the skies of november turn gloomy

[00:00:35] With a load of iron ore twenty six thousand tons more

[00:00:39] Than the edmund fitzgerald weighed empty

[00:00:45] That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed

[00:00:49] When the gales of november came early

[00:00:55] The ship was the pride of the American side

[00:00:58] Coming back from some mill in wisconsin

[00:01:02] As the big freighters go it was bigger than most

[00:01:06] With a crew and good captain well seasoned

[00:01:10] Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms

[00:01:14] When they left fully loaded for cleveland

[00:01:17] Then later that night when the ship's bell rang

[00:01:21] Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'

[00:01:36] The wind in the wires made a tattle tale sound

[00:01:39] When the wave broke over the railing

[00:01:45] And every man knew as the captain did too

[00:01:49] Twas the witch of november come stealin'

[00:01:55] The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait

[00:01:59] When the gales of november came slashin'

[00:02:03] When afternoon came it was freezing rain

[00:02:06] In the face of a hurricane west wind

[00:02:26] When suppertime came the old cook came on deck

[00:02:30] Saying fellas it's too rough to feed ya

[00:02:36] At seven pm a main hatchway caved in

[00:02:39] He said fellas it's been good to know ya

[00:02:45] The captain wired in he had water comin' in

[00:02:49] And the good ship and crew was in peril

[00:02:53] And later that night when his lights went out of sight

[00:02:57] Came the wreck of the edmund fitzgerald

[00:03:20] Does anyone know where the love of god goes

[00:03:24] When the waves turn the minutes to hours

[00:03:30] The searchers all say they'd have made whitefish bay

[00:03:34] If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her

[00:03:40] They might have split up or they might have capsized

[00:03:43] They may have broke deep and took water

[00:03:47] And all that remains is the faces and the names

[00:03:51] Of the wives and the sons and the daughters

[00:04:10] Lake huron rolls superior sings

[00:04:14] In the rooms of her ice water mansion

[00:04:18] Old michigan steams like a young man's dreams

[00:04:22] The islands and bays are for sportsmen

[00:04:28] And farther below lake ontario

[00:04:31] Takes in what lake erie can send her

[00:04:36] And the iron boats go as the mariners all know

[00:04:39] With the gales of november remembered

[00:05:19] In a musty old hall in detroit they prayed

[00:05:22] In the maritime sailors' cathedral

[00:05:28] The church bell chimed till it rang twenty nine times

[00:05:32] For each man on the edmund fitzgerald

[00:05:38] The legend lives on from the chippewa on down

[00:05:41] Of the big lake they call gitche gumee

[00:05:48] Superior they said never gives up her dead

[00:05:51] When the gales of november come early
