Great Big Sea - England[00:00:02]

LRC by lzh ,from jiangxi pingxiang[00:00:09]

We shipped on board the Maryanne[00:00:24]

To find a better life[00:00:28]

And we walked across the water[00:00:32]

When she broke up on the ice[00:00:35]

We came ashore in Carbonear[00:00:39]

With nothing but our rights[00:00:43]

And I wondered if I e'er again[00:00:46]

Would see my London lights[00:00:50]

We were far from the shores of England[00:00:54]

Far from our children and wives[00:00:57]

To play our hand in the Newfoundland[00:01:01]

Where the wind cuts like a knife[00:01:05]

We were far from the shores of England[00:01:08]

We spend our days amid the waves[00:01:15]

Working water, hook and twine[00:01:18]

We would go for weeks with blistered cheeks[00:01:22]

Waiting for the sun to shine[00:01:26]

But as long as the sky hold over us[00:01:29]

We will not taste the brine[00:01:33]

And we'll curse the cod[00:01:37]

With the fear of God[00:01:39]

As we haul in every line[00:01:40]

We were far from the shores of England[00:01:44]

Far from our children and wives[00:01:48]

To play our hand in the Newfoundland[00:01:52]

Where the wind cuts like a knife[00:01:55]

We were far from the shores of England[00:01:59]

Far from our native soil[00:02:03]

To chase a wish and hunt the Fish[00:02:06]

And on the rocks to toil[00:02:10]

We were far from the shores of England[00:02:13]

Should we find Fortune's Favour[00:02:32]

And be spared from the gale[00:02:36]

We will live off honest labour[00:02:40]

With our hearts as big as sails[00:02:43]

But if I should die don't bury me[00:02:47]

Or leave me to the sea[00:02:51]

Please send my bones back to my home[00:02:54]

Where my spirit can be free[00:02:58]

We were far from the shores of England[00:03:02]

Far from our children and wives[00:03:06]

To play our hand in the Newfoundland[00:03:09]

Where the wind cuts like a knife[00:03:13]

We were far from the shores of England[00:03:17]

Far from our native soil[00:03:20]

To chase a wish and hunt the Fish[00:03:24]

And on the rocks to toil[00:03:28]

We were far from the shores of England[00:03:31]
