All you Maine-men, proud and young When you run your Easting down Don't go down to Fundy Bay She'll wear your time away Fundy's long and Fundy's wide Fundy's fog and rain and tide Never see the sun or sky Just the green wave going by Cape Sable's horn blows all day long I wonder why, I wonder why You know, I would rather ride Grenfell Strait or the Breton tide Spend my days on the Labrador Never see old Fundy's shore All my days on the Labrador Never see old Fundy's shore Give her staysail, give her main In the darkness and the rain I don't mind the wet and cold I just don't like the growing old I don't mind the wet and cold I just don't like the growing old Cape Sable's horn blows all day long Fog and rain, fog and rain East-by-North or East-North-East Give her what she steers the best I don't want this foggy wave To be my far and lonely grave I don't want this foggy wave To be my far and lonely grave Cape Sable's horn blows all day long I wonder why, I wonder why Cape Breton's bells ring the swells Ring for me, ring for me
