Şarkı sözleri
Hey up and away
We're leaving today from Marquette Bay
Hey up and away
We're leaving today from Marquette Bay
Throw the ore in the hull, by the sound of the gull
With a pain in my skull I will head right out into the lake
With a formal "standby!" from the L. S. & I
We said our goodbyes with the land growing small in our wake
Hey up and away
We're leaving today from Marquette Bay
Hey up and away
We're leaving today from Marquette Bay
Well, we all nearly died, out the storm we did ride
But our captain was tried and he knew deep inside what to do
No reaching the dock, the ship tied to a rock
For three nights were were stopped
But we lived to head off for the Soo
Hey up and away
We're leaving today from Marquette Bay
Hey up and away
We're leaving today from Marquette Bay
Well the ore line was run in 1931
Under Michigan sun we would work till the whistle would blow
Then we'd take on the town, paint it red, drink it down
Then we'd stumble back round to our ship and we'd settle below
We'd sleep off the ale, rising early to sail
Far away from the rail, say goodbye to Marquette Bay
