Barb'ry Lyr Req: Greenlander (10) Lyr Req: Greenlander 30 Mar 12

I'm looking for the lyrics to a song from a Mawkin Causley CD - I've lost the cover so can't find who wrote the song or any other info apart from the fact that it's called 'The Greenlander'.

The chorus starts:

I am a Greenlander bound out from Newcastle Town
Like a swallow I'll follow him north to the cold Arctic ground
And the good folk of Sheilds on quaysides and keels
Say farewell the Greenlander bound out from Newcastle Town'

Or words to that effect.

Does anyone have any ideas - it isn't in DT.

Many thanks

Barb
