Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
You can swear show a manly barren
Take your turn and watch with the other fellas
As you hunt the bonnie shoals of herring
Well I earned my keep and I paid my way
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
I sailed a million mile, caught ten million fishes
We were dreaming of the shoals of herring
ANight and day the seas were DdarAing
Come Awind oh Dcome more winter Eagain
ASweating or Dcold, Agrowing up, growing Dold, Or F#mdying
AAs we dream about the Dshoals of EherrAing
