Trawlerman's Song

I love coming home from far across the sea

I pick my little wee wifey up and set her on my knee

See how my eldest boy has grown whilst I've been away

See here's a boat I've whittled for thee, especially for thee

I've thought of you every day

I love coming home from far across the sea

And taking up my walking cane and passing through the trees

I wander on the hillside, the doggie at my heel

The bracken waves a welcome to me

"Where have you been? We've missed you a great deal"

I love coming home from far across the sea

I pick my little wee wifey up and set her on my knee
