Текст песни The Shoals of Herring - Ewan MacColl
With
our
nets
and
gear
we′re
faring
On
the
wild
and
wasteful
ocean.
Its
there
that
we
hunt
and
we
earn
our
bread
As
we
hunted
for
the
shoals
of
herring
O
it
was
a
fine
and
a
pleasant
day
Out
of
Yarmouth
harbor
I
was
faring
As
a
cabinboy
on
a
sailing
lugger
For
to
go
and
hunt
the
shoals
of
herring
O
the
work
was
hard
and
the
hours
long
And
the
treatment,
sure
it
took
some
bearing
There
was
little
kindness
and
the
kicks
were
many
As
we
hunted
for
the
shoals
of
herring
O
we
fished
the
Swarth
and
the
Broken
Bank
I
was
cook
and
I'd
a
quarter
sharing
And
I
used
to
sleep
standing
on
my
feet
And
I′d
dream
about
the
shoals
of
herring
O
we
left
the
homegrounds
in
the
month
of
June
And
to
Canny
Shiels
we
soon
were
bearing
With
a
hundred
cran
of
silver
darlings
That
we'd
taken
from
the
shoals
of
herring
Now
you're
up
on
deck,
you′re
a
fisherman
You
can
swear
and
show
a
manly
bearing
Take
your
turn
on
watch
with
the
other
fellows
While
you′re
searching
for
the
shoals
of
herring
In
the
stormy
seas
and
the
living
gales
Just
to
earn
your
daily
bread
you're
daring
From
the
Dover
Straits
to
the
Faroe
Islands
As
you′re
following
the
shoals
of
herring
O
I
earned
my
keep
and
I
paid
my
way
And
I
earned
the
gear
that
I
was
wearing
Sailed
a
million
miles,
caught
ten
million
fishes
We
were
sailing
after
shoals
of
herring
