the lifeboat mona lyrics
[chorus]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
remember the gallant men who drowned
on the lifeboat, mona was her name
[verse 1]
the wind it blows and the sea rose up
beats the land with mighty waves
at st. andrew’s bay the lightship fought
the sea until her moorings gave
[chorus]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
remеmber the gallant men who drownеd
on the lifeboat, mona was her name
[verse 2]
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
[chorus]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
remember the gallant men who drowned
on the lifeboat, mona was her name
[verse 3]
eight men formed that gallant crew
they set their boat against the main
the wind’s so hard and the sea’s so rough
we’ll never see land or home again
[chorus]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
remember the gallant men who drowned
on the lifeboat, mona was her name
[verse 4]
three hours went by and the mona called
the winds blow hard and the seas run high
in the morning on carnusty beach
the mona and her crew did lie
[chorus]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
remember the gallant men who drowned
on the lifeboat, mona was her name
[verse 5]
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
[chorus]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
remember the gallant men who drowned
on the lifeboat, mona was her name
[refrain]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
the men who leave the land behind
and the men who never see land again
[refrain]
remember december fifty+nine
the howling wind and the driving rain
the men who leave the land behind
and the men who never see land again
