"The legend lives on
From the Chipewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
The lake it is said never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy...

...When suppertime came the good cook came on deck sayin' "Fellas, its too rough t' feed ya
At seven PM a main hatchway caved in: he said "Fellas, its been good t' know ya."
The captain wired in he had water comin' in and the good ship and crew were in peril
And later that night when the lights went outta sight came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"

With recognition to Gordon Lightfoot, who wrote a haunting melody about the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Big Mike: thanks for remembering.
