Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Bonny Ship the Diamond
Subject: Lyrics for
Okay, someone has to know this song. Its really bugging me. The song is called "The Diamond", and the lady who does the Celtic music radio program here has been playing it almost every week. Its a really catchy tune, but I can't make out all the words.

Anyone heard it? I'm sure you have.

The chorus is the part I'm having problems with, but I'd like all the lyrics if possible.

It goes something like this:

"and the =something= in the diamond goes fishing for the whale."

I think the song is about a ship, unless I'm totally off, which wouldn't be surprising.

Thanks, everybody.
