                 Lyrics   
                      Who's gonna see   
                      You get your paper tonight   
                      Who'll see your freight gets towed   
                      Who's gonna save you   
                      When your ship don't come in   
                      I know, I know, Iknow   
      
                      She ain't sleek and sassy   
                      She ain't bold and brassy   
                      But it sure is fine to see her go   
                      Nine hundred horses   
                      Eighteen feet below   
                      Making sure the barge gets towed   
      
                      Who's gonna see   
                      You get your paper tonight   
                      Who'll see your freight gets towed   
                      Who's gonna save you   
                      When your ship don't come in   
                      I know, I know, Iknow   
      
                      Get a mile of logs   
                      In the west coast fog   
                      Got my eyes on a radar screen   
                      Like the lone ranger   
                      When a boat's in danger   
                      I'm the first one on the scene   
      
                      Who's gonna see   
                      You get your paper tonight   
                      Who'll see your freight gets towed   
                      Who's gonna save you   
                      When your ship don't come in   
                      I know, I know, Iknow   
      
                      Take your nine to five   
                      Take your suit and tie   
                      You can marry the banker's daughter   
                      The road I ride   
                      Will be the changing tide   
                      And a life on the Georgia Straight water   
      
                      Who's gonna see   
                      You get your paper tonight   
                      Who'll see your freight gets towed   
                      Who's gonna save you   
                      When your ship don't come in   
                      I know, I know, Iknow
