Track Insight / Lyrics
Coffee black and grill is hot
Watching from my favorite spot
Red brick sidewalk, salty air
Autumn leaves float everywhere
The wind pulls hard against the pier
The winter season's drawing near
I see the water turning grey
Waiting for the end of day
Little tugboat, hold the line
Steady rhythm, feeling fine
Watching over Boston bay
Keep the heavy ships away
Old men talk of better years
Sipping drinks and shaking gears
Copper pennies on the ground
Listen to the harbor sound
The wind pulls hard against the pier
The winter season's drawing near
I see the water turning grey
Waiting for the end of day
Little tugboat, hold the line
Steady rhythm, feeling fine
Watching over Boston bay
Keep the heavy ships away
Steam is rising from the plate
Working late to clear the slate
Heavy chains and rusted steel
Turning like a giant wheel
Low tide reveals the hidden sand
Far away from any land
One loud horn breaks through the cold
A story that is never told
Little tugboat, hold the line
Steady rhythm, feeling fine
Watching over Boston bay
Keep the heavy ships away
Salty mist on window glass
Watching all the tourists pass
Brick and mortar, stone and lime
Counting down the midnight time
Little tugboat, hold the line
Steady rhythm, feeling fine
Watching over Boston bay
Keep the heavy ships away
Iron harbor watch.
Steady hold the line.
Iron harbor watch.
