With our nets and gear we're faring[00:03:37]

On the wild and wasteful ocean.[00:03:37]

Its there that we hunt and we earn our bread[00:03:37]

As we hunted for the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

O it was a fine and a pleasant day[00:03:37]

Out of Yarmouth harbor I was faring[00:03:37]

As a cabinboy on a sailing lugger[00:03:37]

For to go and hunt the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

O the work was hard and the hours long[00:03:37]

And the treatment, sure it took some bearing[00:03:37]

There was little kindness and the kicks were many[00:03:37]

As we hunted for the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

O we fished the Swarth and the Broken Bank[00:03:37]

I was cook and I'd a quarter sharing[00:03:37]

And I used to sleep standing on my feet[00:03:37]

And I'd dream about the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

O we left the homegrounds in the month of June[00:03:37]

And to Canny Shiels we soon were bearing[00:03:37]

With a hundred cran of silver darlings[00:03:37]

That we'd taken from the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman[00:03:37]

You can swear and show a manly bearing[00:03:37]

Take your turn on watch with the other fellows[00:03:37]

While you're searching for the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

In the stormy seas and the living gales[00:03:37]

Just to earn your daily bread you're daring[00:03:37]

From the Dover Straits to the Faroe Islands[00:03:37]

As you're following the shoals of herring[00:03:37]

O I earned my keep and I paid my way[00:03:37]

And I earned the gear that I was wearing[00:03:37]

Sailed a million miles, caught ten million fishes[00:03:37]

We were sailing after shoals of herring[00:03:37]
