| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Haul On The Bowline | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 280 | | | | Lyrics: | Haul On the Bowline
Haul on the bowline, our bully ship's a-rollin'
Haul on the
bowline, the bowline Haul!
Haul on the bowline, Kitty is my darlin'
Haul on
the bowline, Kitty lives in Liverpool,
Haul on the bowline, the old man is
a-growlin,
Haul on the bowline, so early in the mornin'
Haul on the bowline,
it's a far cry to payday,
Short-drag shanty. This may be one of the oldest around:
the
bowline was a line used to pull the weather edge of a square sail
as far out to
windward as possible when reaching. It was largely
obsoleted by the introduction of staysails
in the early
eighteenth century.
Recorded by MacColl and Lloyd- Haul on the
Bowline
