And the good ship and crew was in peril
2610
And later that night when 'is lights went outta sight
(Welcome, Dude! Join in!)
2611
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Does any one know where the love of God goes
2613
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?

The searchers all say they’d have made Whitefish Bay

2617
They may have broke deep and took water
2618
And all that remains is the faces and the names
2619
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
(Yay! Beck’s back!)
2622
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion
(Welcome back, Beck!)
2623
Old Michigan steams like a young man’s dreams
2624
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
2625
And farther below, Lake Ontario
2626
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
2627
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
