Ewan MacColl - Lifeboat Mona paroles de chanson

paroles de chanson Lifeboat Mona - Ewan MacColl



Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
The wind did blow and the sea rose up
And beat the land with mighty waves
At St Andrew′s Bay the lightship fought
The sea until her moorings gave
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
The captain signalled to the shore
"We must have help or we'll go down"
From Broughty Ferry at two A.M.
They sent the lifeboat Mona out
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
Eight men formed that gallant crew
They set their boat against the main
The wind so hard, the sea so rough
We′ll never see land or home again
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
Three hours went by and the Mona called
"The wind blows hard and the seas runs high"
In the morning on Carnoustie Beach
The Mona and her crew did lie
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
Five lay drowned in the cabin there
Two were washed up on the shore
Eight men died when the boat capsized
And the eighth is lost forever more
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
The men who leave the land behind
And the men who'll never see land again
Remember December fifty-nine
The howling winds and the driving rain
Remember the gallant men who drowned
On the lifeboat, Mona was her name
