Clancy Brothers - Three Score And Ten слова песни
Methinks I see a host of craftSpreading their sails aleeDown the Humber they do glideAll bound for the Northern SeaMe thinks I see on each small craftA crew with hearts so braveGoing out to earn their daily breadUpon the restless waveAnd it`s three score and tenBoys and men were lost from Grimsby town>From Yarmouth down to ScarboroMany hundreds more were drownedOur herring craft, our trawlersOur fishing smacks, as wellThey long did fight that bitter nightThe battle with the swellMethinks I see them yet againAs they leave this land behindCasting their nets into the seaThe herring shoals to findMe thinks I see them yet againThey`re all on board all rightWith their nets rolled up and their decks cleaned offAnd the side lights burning brightMe thinks I`ve heard the captain say"Me lads we`ll shorten sail"With the sky to all appearancesLooks like an approaching galeMe thinks I see them yet againMidnight hour is pastThe little craft abattling thereAgainst the icy blastOctober`s night brought such a sightTwas never seen beforeThere were mast and yards and broken sparsA washing on the shoreThere were many a heart in sorrowMany a heart so braveThere were many a fine and hearty ladThat met a watery grave
