The Lyrics
Sailing on a freighter was my sweet childhood dream
I'd think about it every single night
Though raised on land, I had it planned
When I became of age
Left home knowin' just what I would do
Ed Fitzgerald, let me sail away on you
Ed Fitzgerald, I'm no runaway
Please let me join your crew, I'll show you what I can do
Ed Fitzgerald, wanna sail away, sail away on you
Looking back a lifetime to my first day aboard
I wonder how I made it all these years
It's the way I've earned a living
I'm completely satisfied
Though knowing I left Mama home in tears
Ed Fitzgerald, I loved you almost like a dame
Ed Fitzgerald, seen a lot of days
Our twenty-nine man crew, there's not much that we can't do
Ed Fitzgerald, I'm delivering, hauling ore with you
Searching for the wreckage of your storm shattered hull
I wonder if they'll ever find a trace
The legend of the Chippewa, they say the lake won't yield
This is going to be our final resting place
Ed Fitzgerald, weather overpowered you
Ed Fitzgerald, folks are gonna view
The morning TV news, of our final, fatal cruise
Ed Fitzgerald, will they put the blame, put the blame on you
Ed Fitzgerald, you were the greatest ship afloat
Ed Fitzgerald, we've seen heady days
You live the life you choose, there's a chance that you might lose
Ed Fitzgerald, gonna slip away, slip a way with you
