We wrote this song about the Gulf Coast Disaster. Nelson Blanchard my music producer performs the vocals. Scott Innes (Voice of Scooby Doo) performs the intro on the song. When I first wrote the song I was hoping I would capture in words as a storyteller the great tragedy that occur. I think I did just that. All money from it's download sales will be donated to Musicians for Oil Relief.. There is Hope Records.. Thank you
WHERE IS OUR SEA, BLUE SHINING SEA
The oil rig exploded at night
Eleven men lost their lives
The broken well turned.... the blue gulf to red
It's fish and wildlife are dead
The bayous, lakes and inlands
Have all been blackened... where's the white sand
This was all caused.. by the hands of man
Chorus
They can't blame this on the weather
This time we must work together
To help all those who suffer... from this tragedy
See the fishermen crying
Their livelihood is dying
This is not how it was meant to be
Why must men act so foolishly
Where is our sea... blue shining sea
When Katrina cut her path
Many felt her winds of wrath
Death and destruction everywhere
So many lives... left in despair
This time the tragedies they'll withstand
Arising from their own oil-soaked land
Were all caused.... by the hands of man
Chorus
They can't blame this on the weather
This time we must work together
To help all those who suffer... though this tragedy
See the fishermen crying
Their livelihood is dying
This is not how it was meant to be
Why must men act so foolishly
Where is our sea... blue shining sea
Bridge
How long will the oil remain
On the beautiful Gulf Coast it has claimed
Will it ever be the same
Chorus
They can't blame this on the weather
This time we must work together
To help all those who suffer... from this tragedy
See the fishermen crying
Their livelihood is dying
This is not how it was meant to be
Why must men act so foolishly
Where is our sea...Where is our sea..
Where is our sea.. blue shining sea
