Skipper Jack	Lyr Req: Fire Maringo / Fire Marengo (99* d)	Lyr Req: Fire Maringo	21 Sep 03
I have a recording of Fire Maringo by "Young Tradition" from back in the 70's. More recently, I have heard the "Shipping News" version. But I am uncertain of the lyrics. What I currently have is: Lift him up and carry him along Fire Maringo, fire away. Put him down where he belong Fire Maringo, fire away. Stow him in the hold below. Stay he must and then we'll go. When I get back to Liverpool Town, I'll pass the line to little Sally Brown. Sally, she's a pretty little craft, Cut sharp to the fore with a rounded aft. I'll haul her high and I'll haul her low. I'll bust her blocks and make her go. Screw the cotton, screw him down. Let's get the hell from this Hilo Town. Any ideas on the origin and if there are any more verses? Dave R.
