GUEST,Blowzabella at work Lyr Req: Song about Grimsby Trawler after U-Boats (15) Lyr Req: Song about Grimsby Trawler after U-Boats 20 Jun 06

Tim Laycock sings a song (which< i think, started out as a poem in about 1918) which is a conversation between somebody on the quayside at Grimsby and a trawler, who is going out to patrol the coast for U Boats.

Each verse starts with a question, beginning 'Little trawler, little trawler...'

and the chorus includes the lines 'I've got a job of work to do for England, and i won't be back in Grimsby till it's done'

Anybody know the words or able to direct me to them?

Thanks

Blowz
