Trawlerman Songtext
von Skinny Lister

Your father was a handsome man,
Your father was a trawler man,
Your father was a trawler man,
Taken by an angry sea,
All hands lost into the deep,
All hands lost into the deep,

Child, when I look at you I can see his smile,
Child, when I′m here with you I am by his side,
Do him proud my son.


My husband was a handsome man,
My husband was trawler man,
My husband was a trawler man,
While children slept and nothing stirred,
Far off shore a tempest roared,
Far off shore a tempest roared,

Haul Away! Haul Away! Haul Away! x2

Child, when I look at you I can see his smile,
Child, when I'm here with you I am by his side,
Do him proud my son.

Haul Away! Haul Away! Haul Away!
