That crazy song used to be on the jukebox in a restaurant that I was the assistant manager of. I got so tired of hearing Gordon Lightfoot. I finally replaced the 45 with REO Riding The Storm Out and didn’t tell the Jukebox Company guy. People complained I just gave them back their quarter. :)
We had an 8 track on the boat I worked on and it played over and over and... Well I still love that song because I am a mariner. I didn’t appreciate the song in my youth, but since I make my living over the water I can relate to this song.
