The Fishermen Of England.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Mar 2001.

Around the shores of England,
That stretch toward the sea,

There dwell an ancient people,
And they labour mightily.

In havens unfrequented,
That a busy life forgets,

The fishermen of England,
Are working at their nets.

In tiny vessels they defy,
the perils of the deep.

And scan the water's dreary waste,
With eyes that never sleep.

And when at night you safely lie,
In blankets snug and warm,

The fishermen of England,
Are riding out the storm.

And when the foes of England,
Assail in fury blind,

The children of the storm arise,
And leave their nets behind.

With merry oath and laughter,
And a smile upon their lips,

The fishermen of England,
The fishermen of England,
Go down, go down to the sea in ships.
