Verse 1

GWell, it's not the hCours of wDatch-on-wGatch,

GAnd it's not the wCork that I mDind so mEmuch,

 Or the lGong cold miles from my lCover's touch,

 'Though for sGure she's fAmar awDay.

 No Gstranger, CI, to the Dtouch of sGteel,

 Or the hGonest fCear any mDan can fEmeel,

 But I lGong for dust undCer my heels

 And a pGocket full of pAmay

CSo I'll Gtake it from dDay to dGay.

Verse 2

GThe pack-ice 'rCound us cDracks and gGroans;

GThe old St. RCoch, she cDreaks and mEmoans.

 The iGcy fog is iCn my bones,

 And the aGche won't Amgo awDay.

GOutside I bCet it's wDarm and fGair.

GI could have her fCingers iDn my hEmair,

 But it's lGong, cold miles to hCer out there

 So I gGuess I'll have to sAmtay

CAnd just tGake it from dDay to dGay!

Chorus

 We're as fDar North now as I wGant to cCome,

 But LCarsen's got us uGnder his thumb,

 And DI signed up for the wGhole damned rCun,

 I Amcan't get off half wDay.

 But when GI get bCack unDto the sGhore,

GI'm going SCouth where iDt stays wEmarm,

 And tGhere'll be someone oCn my arm

 To hGelp me spend my pAmay,

CSo I'll tGake it from dDay to dGay.

 No sGtranger, CI, to the tDouch of sGteel

 And the hGonest fCear any Dman can fEmeel,

 But I lGong for dust undCer my heels

 And a pGocket full of pAmay,

CSo I'll tGake it from dDay to dGay.
