nathan rogers - three fishers lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
three fishers went sailing out into the west
out into the west as the sun went down
each thought on the woman that loved him the best
and the children stood watching them out of the town

[refrain]
for men must work and women must weep
though storms be sudden and the waters be deep
and the harbour bar be moanin’
and the harbour bar be moanin’

[verse 2]
three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower
and they trimmed the lamps as the sun went down
and they looked at the squall and they looked at the shower
and the night+wrack came rollin’ in, ragged and brown

[refrain]
for men must work and women must weep
for there’s little to earn and many to keep, and
the harbour bar be moanin’
the harbour bar be moanin’

[instrumental break]
[refrain]
for men must work and women must weep
though storms be sudden and the waters be deep
and the harbour bar be moanin’
and the harbour bar be moanin’

[verse 3]
three corpses lay out on the shining sands
in the morning gleam as the tide went down, and
the women were weepin’ and wringin’ their hands
for those who would never come back to the town

[refrain]
for men must work and women must weep
and the sooner it’s over, the sooner to sleep
and goodbye to the bar and its moanin’
goodbye to the bar and it’s moanin’

oh men must work and women must weep
and the sooner it’s over, the sooner to sleep
and goodbye to the bar and its moanin’
goodbye to the bar and it’s moanin’
