[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com  [00:10.68]Well I'm on the Downeaster Alexa [00:16.25]And I'm cruising through Block Island Sound [00:21.68]I have charted a course to the Vineyard [00:27.00]But tonight I am Nantucket bound [00:33.56]We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday [00:39.06]And left this morning from the bell in Gardiner's Bay [00:44.18]Like all the locals here I've had to sell my home [00:49.68]Too proud to leave I worked my fingers to the bone [00:53.56]So I could own my Downeaster Alexa [00:59.25]And I go where the ocean is deep [01:04.58]There are giants out there in the canyons [01:10.01]And a good captain can't fall asleep [01:16.64]I've got bills to pay and children who need clothes [01:21.70]I know there's fish out there but where God only knows [01:26.76]They say these waters aren't what they used to be [01:32.45]But I've got people back on land who count on me [01:35.96]So if you see my Downeaster Alexa [01:41.76]And if you work with the rod and the reel [01:47.08]Tell my wife I am trolling Atlantis [01:52.46]And I still have my hands on the wheel [02:29.68]Now I drive my Downeaster Alexa [02:35.06]More and more miles from shore every year [02:40.24]Since they tell me I can't sell no stripers [02:45.62]And there's no luck in swordfishing here [02:51.87]I was a bayman like my father was before [02:57.55]Can't make a living as a bayman anymore [03:02.55]There ain't much future for a man who works the sea [03:07.75]But there ain't no island left for islanders like me
