shoals of herring - the dubliners[00:00:00]
with our nets and gear we're faring[00:00:05]
on the wild and wasteful ocean[00:00:17]
it's out there on the deep[00:00:32]
we harvest and reap our bread[00:00:38]
as we hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:00:48]
oh, it was a fine and a pleasant day[00:01:01]
out of yarmouth harbor, i was faring[00:01:07]
as a cabin boy on a sailing lugger[00:01:13]
we were following the shoals of herring[00:01:19]
now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman[00:01:27]
you can swear and show a manly bearing[00:01:32]
take your turn on watch with the other fellows[00:01:38]
as you're hunting for the shoals of herring[00:01:44]
now we fished the swarth and the broken bank[00:01:52]
i was cook and i'd a quarter share in[00:01:57]
and i used to sleep standing on me feet[00:02:03]
as we hunted for the shoals of herring[00:02:09]
we left the home grounds in the month of june[00:02:17]
and for canny shiels we soon were bearing[00:02:22]
with a hundred cran of the silver darlings[00:02:28]
that we'd taken from the shoals of herring[00:02:34]
in the stormy seas and the living gales[00:02:42]
just to earn your daily bread you're faring[00:02:47]
from the dover straits to the faroe islands[00:02:53]
and you're hunting for the shoals of herring[00:02:59]
well, i earned my keep and i paid my way[00:03:06]
and i earned the gear that i was wearing[00:03:12]
sailed a million miles, caught ten million fishes[00:03:17]
we were hunting after shoals of herring[00:03:23]
you're net rope man now, bor, you're on the move[00:03:31]
and you're learning all about sea faring[00:03:36]
that's your education scraps of navigation[00:03:42]
as you hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:03:48]
night and day the seas were daring[00:03:57]
come wind or calm or winter gales[00:04:07]
sweating or cold, growing up, growing old or dying[00:04:19]
as you hunt the bonny shoals of herring[00:04:32]
