Shoals of Herring - The Clancy Brothers Tommy Makem[00:00:00]
With our nets and gear we're faring[00:00:00]
On the wild and wasteful ocean[00:00:08]
It's out there on the deep[00:00:17]
That we harvest our bread[00:00:20]
As we hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:00:27]
It was on a fine and a pleasant day[00:00:38]
Out of Yarmouth harbor I was faring[00:00:42]
As a cabin boy on a sailing lugger[00:00:47]
For to hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:00:52]
Oh we left the home grounds[00:00:58]
In the month of June[00:01:00]
And for Canny Shiels we soon were bearing[00:01:03]
With a hundred cran of the silver darlings[00:01:07]
That we'd taken from the shoals of herring[00:01:12]
Oh the work was hard[00:01:18]
And the hours were long[00:01:20]
And the treatment sure it took some bearing[00:01:23]
And I used to sleep standing on my feet[00:01:27]
And I'd dream about the shoals of herring[00:01:32]
Now you're up on deck you're a fisherman[00:01:38]
And you're learning all about sea faring[00:01:43]
That's your education scraps of navigation[00:01:48]
As you hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:01:52]
In the stormy seas and the living gales[00:01:58]
I earned the gear that I was wearing[00:02:03]
Sailed ten thousand miles caught ten million fishes[00:02:07]
As we hunted for the shoals of herring[00:02:12]
Night and day we are fearing[00:02:20]
Come wind or wave or winter gales[00:02:28]
Sweating or cold growing up growing old[00:02:36]
As we hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:02:49]
