Verse 1
in a pouring driving rain
Am
The skipper, he'd been drinking
C
D
and the Mate, he felt no pain
and she was dealt her mortal blow
Am
D
And the Mary Ellen Carter settled low
G
There was just us five aboard her
when she finally was awash
Am
We'd worked like hell to save her,
C
D
all heedless of the cost
G
And the groan she gave as she went down,
it caused us to proclaim
Am
D
G
That the Mary Ellen Carter would rise again

Verse 2
G
Well, the owners wrote her off,
C
D
G
not a nickel would they spend
Am
"She gave twenty years of service, boys,
C
D
then met her sorry end
G
But insurance paid the loss to us,
C
D
G
so let her rest below"
G
But we talked of her all winter,
C
D
G
some days around the clock
Am
She's worth a quarter million,
C
D
afloat and at the dock
G
And with every jar that hit the bar,
C
D
G
we swore we would remain
Am
D
G
And make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again

Will make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again

Verse 3
G
All spring, now, we've been with her
C
D
G
on a barge lent by a friend
Am
Three dives a day in hard hat suit
C
D
and twice I've had the bends
G
Thank God it's only sixty feet
C
D
G
and the currents here are slow
Am
D
Or I'd never have the strength to go below
stopped her vents,
C
D
G
dogged hatch and porthole down
Am
Put cables to her, 'fore and aft
C
D
and birded her around
G
Tomorrow, noon, we hit the air
C
D
G
and then take up the strain
Am
D
G
And watch the Mary Ellen Carter rise again

Verse 4
G
For we couldn't leave her there,
C
D
G
you see, to crumble into scale
Am
She'd saved our lives so many times,
C
D
living through the gale
G
And the laughing, drunken rats
C
D
G
who left her to a sorry grave
Am
D
They won't be laughing in another day
C
D
G
has dealt the final blow
Am
With smiling bastards lying to you
C
D
everywhere you go
G
Turn to, and put out all your strength
C
D
G
of arm and heart and brain
Am
D
G
And like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again

Like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again
