Well I m on the Downeaster Alexa
And I m cruising through Block Island Sound.
I have chartered a course to the Vineyard.
But tonight I am Nantucket bound.
We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday,
And left this morning from the bell in Gardiner s Bay.
Like all the locals here I ve had to sell my home,
Too proud to leave, I worked my fingers to the bone
So I could own my Downeaster Alexa,
And I go where the ocean is deep.
There are giants out there in the canyons.
And a good captain can t fall asleep.
I got bills to pay and children who need clothes.
I know there s fish out there but where, God only knows.
They say these waters aren t what they used to be.
But I ve got people back on land who count on me.
So when you see my Downeaster Alexa,
And if you work with the rod and the reel,
Tell my wife I am trolling Atlantis,
And I still have my hands on the wheel.
Instrumental Bridge: |Am G|Am |Am G|Am |
|Em | | | |
|Am | | | |
Now I drive my Downeaster Alexa
More and more miles from shore ev ry year,
Since they told me I can t sell no stripers.
And there s no luck in sword fishing here.
I was a bayman like my father was before.
Can t make a living as a bayman anymore.
There ain t much future for a man who works the sea.
But there ain t no island left for islanders like me.
Ya, ya, ya yo
Ya, ya, ya yo
Ya, ya, ya yo
Ya, ya, ya yo
