The Navigators – Pullin’ Oil from the Sand Lyrics

Artist: The Navigators
Song: Pullin’ Oil from the Sand

Fishing on the prairies
After the fish is gone
Don’t care for the weather
Lungs for the fog

Dreams of boyhood days
Hauling traps and setting trawls
Heading out
The bay each day

Spring time to the fall
Catching fish was never easy
Hard work for boy and man
But the wind was warm and breezy

When it’s blowing off the land
It’s hard to leave the island
For a place that he can’t stand
And a part of him is dying

Pullin’ oil from the sand
People say don’t worry
’cause he can have it all
In a place like Fort McMurray

Or Fort Saskatchewan
But in his mind he lingers
In his heart he’s there
Out in the skiff

Or with his dad
Far away from here
Now each day he looks across
And the sky is everywhere

And at night he looks up at the stars
The nights are o-so clear
It remind him of the ocean
Though it’s far away from here

It will never ever leave him
One day he’ll go back there
