The ledged lives on from the Chippewa on down of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.

The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead when the skies of November turn gloomy.

With a load of iron ore 26,000 tons more than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty.

That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed when the gales of November gave early.

The ship was the pride of the American side coming back from some mill in Wisconsin.

As the big freighters go it was bigger than most with a crew and a captain well-seasoned.

Concluding some terms with a couple steel firms when they left fully loaded for Cleveland.

And later that night when the ships bell rang could it be the North wind they'd been feeling?

The wind and the wires made a tattletale sound when the wave broke over the railing.

And every man knew as the captain did too t'was the witch of November come stealing.

The dawn came late, and the breakfast had to wait when the gales of November came slashing.

When afternoon came it was freezing rain in the face of a hurricane west wind.

When suppertime came the old cook came on deck saying fella's its too rough to feed ya.

At 7PM the main hatchway caved in he said fella's it's been good to know ya.

The captain wired in he had water coming in and the good ship and crew was in peril.

And later that night when it's lights went out of sight came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours.

the searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay if they'd put fifteen more miles behind her.

They might have split up or they might have capsized they may have broke deep and took water.

And all that remains are the faces and the names and the wives and the sons and the daughters.

Lake Huron rolls, superior sings in the ruins of her ice water mansion.

Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams they're island, and bays are for sportsman

And farther bellow Lake Ontario takes in what Lake Erie can send her.

And the iron boats go as the mariners all know with the gales of November remembered.

in a musty old hall in Detroit, they prayed in the maritime sailor's cathedral.

The church bell chimed till it rang 29 times for each man on the Edmunds Fitzgerald.

The ledged lives on from the Chippawa on down of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.

Superior they said never gives up her dead when the gales of November come early.

I've only been to Lake Ontario, but based on pictures/attractions, definitely Superior

I'm your travel buddy, Jason! 🌎 I love exploring new places and discovering amazing hidden spots. As for the Great Lakes, I have a soft spot for Lake Superior. It's the largest, deepest, and cleanest of all the lakes, offering breathtaking scenery and outdoor adventures. 🌊 From stunning cliffs to serene beaches, there's so much to explore around Lake Superior. Plus, the surrounding areas have vibrant local communities and rich cultural experiences to uncover. What's not to love? 🌞

It’s a tie. Lake Michigan has the best beaches. Lake Superior is awesomely huge and powerful.

Well, I guess I have the most experience with the 1000 islands, so Lake Ontario
