Tug on the Line
Sun shown down on a cloudless seaWe were out on the water, my father and meWith several friends of the family along for the rideAnd out on the calm water we killed the motor And spread our nets wideKeep your face to the wind and you'll be fineAnd wait for the tug on the lineEveryone getting restless when we pulled up the netWe dropped it down on the deck and everyone's feet got wetAnd the fish that looked like monsters from way down where the water gets coldSlid down the deck like shuffleboard coasters and made for the holdEveryone's eyes like saucers nobody saying a wordKeep your face to the wind and you'll be fineAnd wait for the tug on the lineSailed home in silence across the cold seaSeveral friends of the family, my father and meSomething down below deck that we would try to forgetShapeless and probably nameless as a vetKeep your face to the wind and you'll be fineAnd wait for the tug on the line Aus Songtexte Mania
