Mark Knopfler - The Trawlerman's Song Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • We're taking on water
  • Diesel and stores
  • Laying up awhile
  • Before I'm back on board
  • They're patching her up
  • To go fishing again
  • They're welding her rudder
  • Scrubbing her keel
  • Scars on her belly
  • Need time to heal
  • In the dock
  • With the trawlermen
  • I know all the people
  • There's nobody new
  • Soon we'll be leaving
  • With the same old crew
  • On the green water
  • The tumbling sea
  • They ain't running
  • Like the good old days
  • Time's just slipping
  • Down the old slipways
  • In the dock
  • So dear to me
  • Dark is the night
  • I need a guiding light
  • To keep me
  • From foundering
  • On the rocks
  • My only prayer
  • Is just to see you there
  • At the end
  • Of my wandering
  • Back in the dock
  • I could use a layoff
  • Getting my strength back
  • But there's a loan to pay off
  • And a few skipjack
  • So it's a turnaround
  • Back in the southerly wind
  • Pirates coming in
  • To steal our gold
  • You can count yourself lucky
  • With a profit in the hold
  • In the dock
  • When we come in
  • Dark is the night
  • I need a guiding light
  • To keep me
  • From foundering
  • On the rocks
  • My only prayer
  • Is just to see you there
  • At the end
  • Of my wandering
  • Back in the dock
