Lyrics Mingulay Boat Song - The Wellermen
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Swing
her
head
'round
into
the
weather
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
What
care
we
though
White
the
Minch
is
What
care
we,
boys
for
windy
weather
When
we
know
that
Every
inch
is
Closer
homeward
to
Mingulay
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Swing
her
head
'round
into
the
weather
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
Wives
are
waiting
By
the
pierhead
Gazing
seawards
from
the
heather
Bring
her
'round,
boys
Then
we'll
anchor
E'er
the
sun
sets
on
Mingulay
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Swing
her
head
'round
into
the
weather
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
Ships
return
now
Heavy-laden
Mothers
holdin'
Bairns
a-cryin'
They'll
return
yet
When
the
sun
sets
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Swing
her
head
'round
into
the
weather
Heave
her
ho,
boys
Let
her
go,
boys
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
Sailin'
homeward
to
Mingulay
