Lyrics

Now it's three long years since we made her pay
Sing haul away me laddie-o
And the owners say that she's had her day
And sing haul away me laddie-o
So heave away for the final trawl
Sing haul away me laddie-o
It's an easy pull for the catch is small
And sing haul away me laddie-o
Then stow your gear lads and batten down
Sing haul away me laddie-o
And I'll take the wheel lads and I'll turn her round
And sing haul away me laddie-o
And we'll join the venture in the morning star
Sing haul away me laddie-o
Righty high and empty towards the bar
And sing haul away me laddie-o
For I'd rather beach her on the Skerry rock
Sing haul away me laddie-o
Than to see her torched in the breaker's dock
And sing haul away me laddie-o
And when I die you can stow me down
Sing haul away me laddie-o
In a rusty hold where the breakers pound
And sing haul away me laddie-o
Then I'd make the haven of Pinner's moon
Sing haul away me laddie-o
Where the grub is good and the bunks are clean
And sing haul away me laddie-o
For I've fished a lifetime boy and man
Sing haul away me laddie-o
And the final trawl scarcely makes a crown
And sing haul away me laddie-o
