So, now I've got the CD Tend the Fire, and here are the correct words. Would you like a tune, anyone? HAUL, BROTHERS HAUL (by David Doersch) We'll break the ice and haul away So haul, brothers haul No ship will come for many a more day So haul, brothers haul Oh, the snow has fallen so cold and grey So haul, brothers, haul But yule has come so we lengthen the day So haul, brothers, haul. For where's the coal for to light the fire To cook and heat and steam? It's waiting in the Molly McGuire So break the ice, And hook the team And haul, brothers, haul. My father's back from Aberdeen So haul, brothers, haul It's Christmastide, he's wearing the green, So haul, brothers, haul Oh, my sister danced the Solstice, oh! So haul brothers haul She kissed a man 'neath the mistletoe So haul, brothers, haul For where's the coal for to light the fire To cook and heat and steam? It's waiting in the Molly McGuire So break the ice, and hook the team and haul, brothers, haul.
