Текст песни Noseworthy And Piercy

Noseworthy and Piercy were two fine fishermen

Off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland

Oh the ocean's an angel with the face of a flounder

Ah she holds the devil by the hand

Ah she holds the devil by the hand

"Good catch to you all," calls the captain, Robert Rose

The dory boats are lowered where the fathoms fall below

The red sun scowls and the wind the wiser

Whispering a warning o'er the lines

Those who dwell ashore know nothing of the lore

And the glory and the mystery of the deep

Salt water in our veins and the captain at the reins

Our wandering souls the freest

Our wandering souls the freest of the free

When the mother ship's cannon cracked the signal to return

The clouds were building bastions in the swirling up above

Poseidon the king and the wind his jester

Dancing with the Lightning Lady Fair

Dancing with the Lightning Lady Fair

The black water boiled and the dory pitched and toiled

Can you hear the claxon calling out your name

Are we anchored to a fate to die upon the waves

Far from all our family

Far from all our family and friends

Tiny fingers pressed against the window pane

Find your father's star upon the sea

Keep your faith like teeth beneath your pillowcase

Until the day when he returns again

With breath of wind and bones of ice

They cast their cries into the night

Lost, alone, adrift, alive

After two days and nights with the oars in the grave

The two men were given for gone, gone away

Bitter news, it travels well, like a schooner on a swell

Their families learned the story of their fate

But on the ocean high a rescue had come by

And took them to the Old World on the far Atlantic side

After two months gone the blessed harbour of St. John's

Rolled in on the North Atlantic tide

Rolled in on the North Atlantic tide

For those who dwell ashore know nothing of the lore

And the glory and the mystery of the deep

But when the heart is strong you'll return where you belong

They made it back to Newfoundland

(They made it back to Newfoundland)

They made it back to Newfoundland again

Tiny fingers pressed against the window pane

Find your father's star upon the sea

Keep your faith like teeth beneath your pillow case

Until the day when he returns again
