lyrics

Where are all the fellows and the fishermen’s wives?
They’re drunk on a dream of hope for better lives
The babies are crying and the mothers are lying
They say, Hush little babe, it’ll all be alright.

But the Musgrave mender,
Musgrave mender
Watches them all pass away

Longing to forget but forgetting to long
They tap their toes to old familiar songs
Goodnight Irene and farewell to sweet Marlene
They swish their skirts looking for a way to leave

But the Musgrave mender,
Musgrave mender
Watches them all pass away
