The Makem Brothers - Wild and Restless Foam lyrics
On a clear and frosty morn, we sailed out from our port, Just south of Newfoundland, boys, we were bound. Where the cold and raging sea is a rich as it is deep, And the halibut ….. and mighty boys are found. Chorus And we're hauling night and day Just to earn a decent pay and we're fightin' wind and wave and ice and snow But you won't find a fisherman Who would rather be on land, Than out upon the wild and restless foam. Well, our schooner served us well as she took us through the swells So we reached our destination in good time. When the captain gave a shout, we sent the dories out, To set the trawls and attach the ganion lines Chorus But the storm, it soon set in, bringing snow and driving winds, And our noble captain's eyes were filled with fear. He said, “I'll give off all our… to the dark and frigid deep, “But, I'll be damned if I'll give… Chorus So we heaved and so we hauled, and we gathered in our trawl, Back to our ship we tried to make our way. But in the storm and fading light, well our ship we did lose sight, Then the ocean doused us with her icy spray. Chorus All through the bitter night, boys, bravely we did fight, With our hands and feet all frozen to the bone. And we swore with every breath as we battled with old death That we wouldn't stop until we made it home. Chorus When the dawn, she rolled around, well, our dory, it was found, Many miles off the coast of Newfoundland. All battered, stiff, and worn, we made it through that storm, But there were many who never lived to sail again. Chorus 2x |
