Simplified

Key: C minor

Verse 1

It's early in the morning

When the birds sing in the pines

The sun peeks through the forest

Where the cold river climbs

Verse 2

The men are up at five o'clock

And to the trees at six

A hard day's work, a good night's sleep

Is all they ever mix

Verse 3

Way, hey

Another brand- new day

On the wild and windy shores

Of old super- i- ay

Verse 4

From North Bay to Fort William

On the rocky northern shore

The mills are filled with cedar pulp

And the boats are filled with ore
