W:Once a-gain with the tide she slips her lines
W:Turns her head and comes a-wake
W:Where she lay so still there at Pri-va-teer's Wharf
W:now she quick-ly ga-thers way
W:She will range far south from the har-bour mouth
W:and re-joice with ev-ery wave
W:Who will know the Blue-nose in the Sun
W:Feel her bow rise free of Mother Sea
W:In a sunburst cloud of spray
W:That stings the cheek while the rigging will speak
W:Of sea-mile gone away.
W:She is always best under full press
W:Hard over as she'll lay
W:Who will know the bluenose in the sun?
W:Who will know the Bluenose in the sun?
W:That proud fast Queen of the Grand Banks Fleet
W:Portrayed on every dime
W:Knew hard work in her timm hard work in every line
W:The rich men's toy of the gloucester boys
W:with their token bit of cod
W:they snapped their spars and strained to pass her by
W:But she left them all behind
W:Now her namesake daughter remains to show what she has been
W:What every schoolboy remembers and will not come again
W:To think she's the last of the Grand Bank Schooners
W:That fes do many men
W:And who will know the Bluenose in the sun?
W:So does she not take wing like a living thing
W:child of the moving tide
W:see her pass with grace on the waters face
W:With clean and quiet pride
W:Our own tall ship of great renouwn still lifts unto the sky
W:Who will know the bluenose in the sun?
W:Who will know the bluenose in the sun?
