Caller Ou

Album: Where the Dolphins Do Play
|
Traditional
|
When winter winds howl and the sea rolling high
Our boatmen sae brave, all dangers defy
There last haul on board, they steer for the shore
They're live cargo landed is soon at our door
Caller ou, caller ou, caller ou
Frae the Forth, caller ou, caller ou
At nicht roon the ingle sae canty are we
The fisher lass brings in her treat frae the sea
Wi' music and sang as time passes by
We hear in the distance the creel lassies cry
Caller ou, caller ou, caller ou
Frae the Forth, caller ou, caller ou
So here's to the boatman, at hame and awa'
At kirk and at fair there's nane gaes sae braw
And weel be their dames sae blythesome and fair
They're voices in evening is music to hear.
Caller ou, caller ou, caller ou
Frae the Forth, caller ou, caller ou
|
