Its an interesting thing, but taping the song and being unable to hear everything led to me reconstructing what I couldnt hear, so I sing a different version to the one Vic Bell wrote. The crew left the boat, the whole thing was over, etc. we'll float them downriver and sell them in town, 2nd vs How many thousands etc. She's a six foot thick hemlock fast sunken etc, The back deck's a mess, all kitties and hawsers, sliding and tangling with the anchor and chain, and there in the midstream with winches and pikehauls, we'll bind those logs tight so theyre not lost again. Its 36 hrs we've been without sleep, jes living on coffee we make on the site, It's a 5hr haul but we'll all get our rest then, with a starboard side swell for a bloody rough ride
