Marie Christine Lyrics

INTRO:
VRS 1:
Now, have you seen the lighthouse shining from the rock
Or the ship Marie Christine and all her gallant lot
Now, have you seen the lighthouse, "Oh, we are close to land"
Cried the brave young captain to his wretched band
VRS 2:
Now, have you seen the harbour, cried Marie Christine
Have you seen the jagged rocks and the waters in between
Now, have you seen the lighthouse, oh, save me if you can
For if you do, I promise you, I'll never sail again
VRS 3:
Now, have you seen the lighthouse shining from the rock
Cried the brave young captain to his wretched lot
Now, gather all your photographs and don your coats of blue
If anyone can save us now, Marie Christine 'tis you
VRS 4:
When I first saw Marie Christine, the woman that she was
I signed aboard to man her sails, with honour held her course
I christened her with old champagne and I drove her to the west
Of all the men who sailed on her, in truth I sailed her best
VRS 5:
Now, have you seen the lighthouse shining from the rock
Or the ship Marie Christine and all her gallant lot
Now, have you seen the lighthouse, "Oh, we are close to land"
Cried the brave young captain to his wretched band
VRS 6:
Come all ye would be sailors
All ye would be sailors, ohh
All ye would be sailors
If anyone can save us now, Marie Christine 'tis you
If anyone can save us now, Marie Christine 'tis you
