Wreck Of The Carlos Rey |
Fifty traveling to work the fields |
Toil the factories and sweat the steel |
Set out to sail from Santa Rosalie |
I left you a note tacked to a tree |
Adios querida |
I’ll return one day |
Now I’m leaving on the Carlos Rey |
Four cruel days under stormy skies |
Not much bread to keep us alive |
The wind kicked up and the rain came down |
Then we all heard a terrible sound |
Adios querida |
Nothing more to say |
I’m lost in the wreck of the Carlos Rey |
I struggled against the pull of the tide |
I clutched my bag with your picture inside |
But my heart did break as it slipped away |
Disappearing into the gray |
Adios querida |
I’ve gone to stay |
Down in the wreck of the Carlos Rey |
In the dark and cold I let you go |
With the hunk of wood that I took hold |
I sleep in a bed of salt and sand |
And dream sweet dreams of taking your hand |
Adios querida |
I’m gone away |
Down in the wreck of the Carlos Rey |
