the final trawl - tim gollins lyrics

Loading...

it’s been three long years, since we made her pay
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
and we can’t get by, on the subsidy
sing haul away, my laddie*o

so now you heave away, for the final trawl
sing haul away, my laddie*o
it’s an easy pull, for the catch is small
sing haul away, my laddie*o

and then you take your gear, lad and batten down
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
and i’ll taker her wheel, lad and turn her ’round
sing haul away, my laddie*o

and then we’ll join the ‘venture’, and the ‘morning star’
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
riding high and empty, towards the bar
sing haul away, my laddie*o

for i’d rather beach her, on the skerry rock
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
than to see her torched, in the breakers dock
sing haul away, my laddie*o

then when i die, you can stow me down
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
in her rusty hold, where the breakers sound
sing haul away, my laddie*o
and then i’ll make the haven, of fiddler’s green
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
where the grub is good, and the bunks are clean
sing haul away, my laddie*o

for i’ve fished a lifetime, boy and man
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
and this final trawl, scarcely makes a cran
sing haul away, my laddie*o

and it’s been three long years, since we made her pay
sing, haul away, my laddie*o
and we can’t get by, on the subsidy
sing haul away, my laddie*o
