I saw an eagle catch a fish crossed my fingers made a wish
|
He flew away to clear blue skies the way an eagle flies
|
I saw the sun rise o'er the sea through the clouds he winked at me
|
Brightened up and seemed to say here is another day
|
|
Out of St George Isle people make you smile
|
Won't you bide a while out on St George Isle
|
[ sax ]
|
I found a penny on the beach in the sand beneath my feet
|
Fortune someone had one day and let it slip away
|
Oyster boats in disarray scattered all around the bay
|
Makes me think of one complaint I wish that I could paint
|
|
Out of St George Isle...
|
Out of St George Isle...
