Lock Keeper lyrics

Send "Lock Keeper" Ringtone to your Cell There is an extensive system of locks along the St. Lawrence Seaway. The locks have a marvellous history. It`s a pity they couldn`t speak half the tales they`ve been privy to. I guess it probably goes without saying that everyone who has to travel to make a living will relate to the parallels in this song. Stan loved the road and performing was life`s-blood, but he wanted very badly to be the lock-keeper.] You say, `Well-met again, Lock-keeper! We`re laden even deeper that the time before, Oriental oils and tea brought down from Singapore.` As we wait for my lock to cycle I say, `My wife has given me a son.` `A son!` you cry, `Is that all that you`ve done?` She wears bougainvilla blossoms. You pluck `em from her hair and toss `em in the tide, Sweep her in your arms and carry her inside. Her sighs catch on your shoulder; Her moonlit eyes grow bold and wiser through her tears And I say, `How could you stand to leave her for a year?` `Then come with me` you say, `to where the Southern Cross Rides high upon your shoulder.` `Come with me!` you cry, `Each day you tend this lock, you`re one day older, While your blood runs colder.` But that anchor chain`s a fetter And with it you are tethered to the foam, And I wouldn`t trade your life for one hour of home. Sure I`m stuck here on the Seaway While you compensate for leeway through the Trades; And you shoot the stars to see the miles you`ve made. And you laugh at hearts you`ve riven, But which of these has given us more love of life, You, your tropic maids, or me, my wife. `Then come with me` you say, `to where the Southern Cross Rides high upon your shoulder.` `Ah come with me!` you cry, `Each day you tend this lock, you`re one day older, While your blood runs colder.` But that anchor chain`s a fetter And with it you are tethered to the foam, And I wouldn`t trade your life for one hour of home. Ah your anchor chain`s a fetter And with it you are tethered to the foam, And I wouldn`t trade your whole life for just one hour of home Send " Lock Keeper" Ringtone to your Cell Lock Keeper lyrics @ ELyrics | Lock Keeper lyrics @ Kovideo | Lyrics and Video @ MusicBabylon | Lock Keeper lyrics @ Songlyrics | Lock Keeper lyrics @ ELyricsWorld
