Thread Name: Origins: Westering Home (Hugh Roberton)
Subject: RE: Lyrics? Westering home and a song in the air
When I first heard Westering Home, I thought that it was too short so I wrote a third verse which I sing whenever I perform the song.

Rolling along through the grey Irish Sea,
Ireland to windward and Man on our lee,
Up on the foredeck it's there that I'll be,
Awaitin' my first glimpse of Islay.
