O, it was a fine and a pleasant day |
| [00:17.000] |
Out of Yarmouth harbour I was faring |
| [00:23.000] |
As a cabin boy on a sailing lugger |
| [00:29.000] |
For to hunt the bonny shoals of herring |
| [00:37.000] |
O, I earned me keep and I paid my way |
| [00:43.000] |
And I earned the gear that I was wearing |
| [00:49.000] |
Sailed a million miles, caught ten-million fishes |
| [00:56.000] |
As we hunted for the shoals of herring |
| [01:03.000] |
Night and day the seas we're darin |
| [01:09.000] |
Come wind or calm or winter gale |
| [01:17.000] |
Sweating or cold |
| [01:21.000] |
Growing up, growing old or dying |
| [01:28.000] |
As we hunted the bonny shoals of herring |
