Lorraine Lyr Req: Lament for the Hull Trawlers (28) RE: LYRICS:Lament for Haul Trawlers(Armstrong) 10 Aug 99


Yes yes it is Hull Trawlers

Lament for Hull Trawlers

"Mist hangs heavy over the land Over the estuary
Shrouding the ships as they move from the docks
Down the Humber to the sea
Bitter the winds and heavy the billow
freezing the hail and rain
As 3 fishing trawlers went out with the tide
And never are seen again."

Does that ring a bell. The notes said (and I'm trying to remember because I don't have the album now) that Frankie over heard fishermen discussing the disaster in a pub and she wrote the words there. I can do more words if anyone thinks it would be helpful but I know it's not all right--which is why I asked for help. Thank you George H Any takers???-Lorraine
