I was born in Cape Breton
D A
Born by the sea
A D
By the Seal Island bridge
D
In sweet Boularderie
D G
An by age seventeen
D A
There was nothing for me
D
So I headed for Thorold
A D
Washed up on the beach
D G
An I slept in the Jungle
D A
Lived hard, took a fall
A D G
'Til I found myself standing
A D
At the SIU hall
D
And with nothing to stay for
A
No kids and no wife
D A
I signed on that morning
D
For the rest of my life
A
My back it was strong
D A
And that strength never failed
D G
Up the Detroit River
A D
On the Ferndale I sailed
G D A D G D
G
And now I am married
D A
To the woman I love
D
She's a gift I was given
G D
From Heaven above
G
And I call every morning
A
And I call every night
D G
She's all I ever wanted
A D
The love of my life

And now in the evening

When we talk on the phone

She says I love you Daddy

When you coming back home

More every day
