lyrics

We go doWn to the boats before the dawning of the day
Have another cup of coffee from the wharf we push away
On a boat just 'like my father named for my mother I'm a fisher of these waters

Pushing through the fog with a sure and steady hand
Back out on the grounds hook the buoys, pull them in
The swell is rising high, rain and winds be damned Cause I know what I am

Who would I be if I couldn't go to sea
What would I do without this rowdy crew
Where would I go it's the only life I know
Like all the sons and daughters I'm a fisher of these waters
Like all the sons and daughters I'm a fisher of these waters

Had ocean in my veins since the day that I was born
I can touch the air to feel a coming storm
And back home in the harbour town where all the flames are burning
I know soon we'll be returning

Who would I be if I couldn't go to sea
What would I do without this rowdy crew
Where would I go it's the only life I know
Like all the sons and daughters I'm a fisher of these waters
Like all the sons and daughters I'm a fisher of these waters

We're tied up to the wharf again another season done
There's something in the wind about a fight that's gonna come
Just like my father down to my daughter I'm a fisher of these waters

Who would I be if I couldn't go to sea
What would I do without this rowdy crew
Where would I go it's the only life I know
Like all the sons and daughters I'm a fisher of these waters
Who would I be if I couldn't go to sea
What would I do without this rowdy crew
Where would I go it's the only life I know
Like all the sons and daughters I'm a fisher of these waters
