Subject: RE: Lyr & Tune add: Banks of Newfoundland
An alternative version of the second verse I have learned goes:

There was Tom Lynch from Ballinahinch,
Jimmy Murphy and Mike Moore;
I can tell you well, they suffered like hell
On the way to Baltimore;
For they'd pawned their clothes in Liverpool,
And sailed as they did stand.
And there blow some cold Nor'westers
On the Banks of Newfoundland.


Regards,

A
