《The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald(live 版) - Dordon Lightfoot

[00:00:18] The legend lives on from the chippewa on down

[00:00:21] Of the big lake they called gitche gumee

[00:00:27] The lake it is said never gives up her dead

[00:00:30] When the skies of november turn gloomy

[00:00:36] With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more

[00:00:40] Than the edmund fitzgerald weighed empty

[00:00:46] 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

[00:01:03] 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

[00:01:18] And later that night when the ships bell rang

[00:01:21] Could it be the north wind theyd been feelin

[00:01:35] The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound

[00:01:38] And a wave broke over the railing

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

[00:01:48] Twas the witch of november come stealin

[00:01:54] The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait

[00:01:57] When the gales of november came slashin

[00:02:02] When afternoon came it was freezin rain

[00:02:05] In the face of a hurricane west wind

[00:02:24] When suppertime came

[00:02:26] The old cook came on deck sayin

[00:02:28] Fellas its too rough to feed ya

[00:02:34] At seven p m a main hatchway caved in he said

[00:02:38] Fellas its been good to know ya

[00:02:43] The captain wired in he had water coming in

[00:02:46] And the good ship and crew was in peril

[00:02:51] And later that night when his lights went outta sight

[00:02:54] Came the wreck of the edmund fitzgerald

[00:03:17] Does any one know where the love of God goes

[00:03:21] When the waves turn the minutes to hours

[00:03:27] The searches all say theyd have made whitefish bay

[00:03:30] If theyd put fifteen more miles behind her

[00:03:37] They might have split up or they might have capsized;

[00:03:40] May have broke deep and took water

[00:03:44] And all that remains is the faces and the names

[00:03:48] Of the wives and the sons and the daughters

[00:04:07] Lake huron rolls superior sings

[00:04:11] In the rooms of her ice-water mansion

[00:04:14] Old michigan steams like a young mans dreams;

[00:04:18] The islands and bays are for sportsmen

[00:04:24] And farther below lake ontario

[00:04:28] Takes in what lake erie can send her

[00:04:31] And the iron boats go as the mariners all know

[00:04:35] With the gales of november remembered

[00:05:14] In a musty old hall in detroit they prayed

[00:05:17] In the maritime sailors cathedral

[00:05:23] The church bell chimed till it rang twenty-nine times

[00:05:27] For each man on the edmund fitzgerald

[00:05:33] The legend lives on from the chippewa on down

[00:05:36] Of the big lake they call gitche gumee

[00:05:42] Superior they said never gives up her dead

[00:05:46] When the gales of november come early
