Final Trawl Lyrics

Now it's three long years since we made her pay
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
And the owners say that she'd had her day
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
So heave away for the final trawl
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
It's an easy pull, for the catch is small
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
Then stow your gear, lads, and batten down
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
And I'll take the wheel, lads, and turn her 'round
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
And we'll join the Venture and the Morning Star
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
Riding high and empty towards the bar
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
Now I'd rather beach her on the Skerry Rock Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
Than to see her torched in the breaker's dock
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
And when I die you can stow me down
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
In her rusty hold, where the breakers sound
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
Then I'd make the haven of Fiddlers Green
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
Where the grub is good and the bunks are clean
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
For I've fished a lifetime, boy and man
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
And the final trawl scarcely makes a cran
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
