Thursday

On the Shores of Elliot Bay

Their boats traveled gently across the water
On the shores of Elliot Bay
'Til they landed on the sand over yonder,
On a cold, cold rainy day
On the shores of Elliot Bay.

They settled down there, where the wind blows strong
On the shores of Elliot Bay
Through the winter, dark and cold and long
When the rain poured down, poured down hard
On the shores of Elliot Bay.

And there they made a settlement in the trees
On the shores of Elliot Bay
Looking out over the glassy seas
There was no city, not yet, then
On the shores of Elliot Bay.

And now there's a city where they landed
On the shores of Elliot Bay
The people are gone, not forgotten--but
Only a monument stands now
On the shores of Elliot Bay.
