How still lies the bay__ in the light_ western airs__
Which blow__ from the crim_-son_ ho- ri-i-zon__
Once more__ we tack home__ with a dry_ empty hold_
Saving gas_ with the breezes_ so_ fair___
She's a kindly Cape Is_-lander_ old__ but still sound__
But so lost__ in the longliner's_ sha-a-dow_
Make and break__ and make do__ but the fish are__ so fe-ew-ew__
That she won't be_ re placed_ should sh| _e foun _ | der ___
_| _ _| _ _|
It's so hard_ to not think of__ be fore_ the big war_
When the cod went so cheap_ not so_ plen_-ty_
Foreign trawlers_ go by now_ with long_-seeing_ eyes_
Taking all_ where we seldom_ take any__
And the young folk don't stay_ with the fisherman's way_ _
Long a go__ they all moved__ to the_ ci-i-ties__
And the ones_ left be hind__ old_ tired__ and blind__
Can't work for_ "a pound_ or a| _ penny _ | "__
_ _|
In Make and Break Harbour_ the boats_ are so few__
Too_ many__ are pulled up__ and rotten__
Most houses stand_ empty_ old nets hung__ to dry__
Are blown away__ lost_ and f| _orgott _ | en_ __

Now I can see__ the big draggers__ have stirred_ up the bay__
Leaving lobster traps_ smashed on_ the bo-o-ttom__
Can they think it don't_ pay_ to res pect the old__ wa-a-ays__
That Make and Break men__ have not for gotton__
For we still keep our_ time_ to_ the turn of the tide_
And this boat_ that I built_ with my_ father__
Still lifts to the sky_ the one lunger_ and I_
Still talk like_ old friends_ on the| _ water _ | ___ _
_|
In Make and Break Harbour_ the boats_ are so few__
Too many__ are pulled up__ and rotten__
Most houses stand_ empty_ old nets hung__ to dry__
Are blown away__ lost_ and fo| _rgotte _ | n__ _
