| Paul Gross & Captain Tractor - The Robert MacKenzie Lyrics: | ||
32 men on a Great Lake boat quit the pier at Thunder Bay, 28,000 tons of coal on a cold November day 800 feet and 10 more long, 80 feet across The steel mills of Detroit our destination through the frost At 2 a.m. on the second, waves were running up to 40 feet Winds were blowing 60 miles, our engines crankin' heat At 3:13 we took a wave, our wheelhouse left behind The radar slipped beneath the waves, and we were running blind. Here me call across the waves If I don't come home tonight I will make it home someday (Steel boats, Iron men) 32 down on the Robert McKenzie (Steel boats, Iron men) 32 down on the Robert McKenzie (Steel boats, Iron men) 32 down on the Robert McKenzie http://www.free-lyrics.org/21244-Paul-Gross-&-Captain-Tractor.html A captain name of Phillips, seekin' shelter from the storm Turned us south of Bete Grise Bay by way of Keewenaw Point But the winds were pushing at such a rate we ended up drifting north A wave broke over a knife of a rock, six fathom shoal The McKenzie she was cut in half and the stern she rammed the bow Men were caught in metal jaws and flames burned out of hell Stern kept runnin' all her lights ablaze, not one man would be found Captain's last transmission read, 32 men down, 32 men down Here me call across the waves If I don't come home tonight I will make it home someday (Steel boats, Iron men) 32 down on the Robert McKenzie (Steel boats, Iron men) 32 down on the Robert McKenzie (Steel boats, Iron men) 32 down on the Robert McKenzie Here me call across the waves If I don't come home tonight I will make it home someday Yes I call across the waves If I don't come home tonight I will make it home someday View more Paul Gross & Captain Tractor Song Lyrics: Paul Gross & Captain Tractor - The Robert MacKenzie Lyrics |
