shane pendergast – three mile limit lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve seen the last of brandy
and my schooner’s had her day
no more to tease those cursed cutters
dashing ’round the bay
[verse 2]
my running days are over now
no more i’ll watch the tide
but i was well outside
the three+mile limit
[verse 3]
we filled our hull at st. pierre
and we put out for glace bay
but with cutters thick as mussel beds
we soon were underway
[verse 4]
around cape north to east point
by morning we were spied
but i was well outside
the three+mile limit
[verse 5]
the ulna came up to us
and they blew their whistle thrice
while i lay languid in the fo’c’sle
brandy had me tight
[verse 6]
when they fired a warning shot
i started up to rise
but i was well outside
the three+mile limit
[verse 7]
williams brought a tow line
as they boarded nellie j
they spoke of seizing contraband
and towing us away
[verse 8]
it is true we carry liquor
but you know as well as i
that i am well outside
the three+mile limit
[verse 9]
then milthorpe looked me in the eye
a crime you did commit
for ottawa has changed the law
to a twelve+mile limit
a twelve+mile limit
[verse 10]
so i’ve seen the last of brandy
and my schooner’s had her day
no more to tease those cursed cutters
dashing ’round the bay
[outro]
my running days are over now
no more i’ll watch the tide
but i was well outside
the three+mile limit
the three+mile limit
the three+mile limit
