lirik lagu david francey - ballad of bowser macrae
one of the most interesting people i have met on my
travels, greg (bowser) macrae was the third mate on the
mv algoville.
(june 4, 2005. mv algoville, lake superior)
i was born in cape breton
born by the sea
by the seal island bridge
in sweet boularderie
but by age seventeen
there was nothing for me
so i headed for thorold
washed up on the beach
i slept in the jungle
lived hard, took a fall
’til i found myself standing
at the siu hall
and with nothing to stay for
no kids and no wife
i signed on that morning
for the rest of my life
my back it was strong
and that strength never failed
up the detroit river
on the ferndale i sailed
and now i am married
to the woman i love
she’s a gift i was given
from heaven above
and i call every morning
and i call every night
she’s all i ever wanted
the love of my life
tonight down the line
i heard my boy say
daddy i miss you
more every day
but when i hear your voice
then i feel alright
i love you daddy
good luck and good night
and now in the evening
when we talk on the phone
he says i love you daddy
when you coming back home
i was born in cape breton
born by the sea
by the seal island bridge
in sweet boularderie
