歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The rust is eating at the gate But we can make the water wait I taped the schedule to the glass Today the big rigs shall not pass The morning salt is in the air We’re staying in the captain’s chair [Pre-Chorus] The coffee’s steaming in the pot In the only space we’ve got Hear the dobro start to hum See the townspeople have come [Chorus] Oh, keep the ferry in the bay We’re holding back the tide today The shore is ours to keep and hold It’s worth much more than private gold [Verse] Little Jimmy skips a stone This beach is all he’s ever known Mrs. Miller brings the soup To feed the weary local group The wheelhouse clock is ticking slow We’ve got nowhere else to go [Chorus] Oh, keep the ferry in the bay We’re holding back the tide today The shore is ours to keep and hold It’s worth much more than private gold [Bridge] Let the engines idle low Watch the public spirit grow From a murmur to a roar Walking on the common shore No more fences, no more locks Just the wind across the rocks [Solo] [Verse] The builders came with pens and ink To push us to the very brink They want to buy the ocean view And take the sand from me and you But every knot we tie is tight To keep the harbor in the light [Chorus] Oh, keep the ferry in the bay We’re holding back the tide today The shore is ours to keep and hold It’s worth much more than private gold [Hook] Slow the water, save the sand Hand in hand across the land Slow the water, save the sand Hand in hand across the land [Chorus] Oh, keep the ferry in the bay We’re holding back the tide today The shore is ours to keep and hold It’s worth much more than private gold [Outro]
