Subject: Lyr Req: Whale Chasing Man
I used to perform this song a lot 30 years ago, but with the onset of CRAFT I'm lost. It's a Harry Robonson/Robertson song of course.
'Chorus - Four on and four off are the watches we stand,
Four months upon ice with no sight of land,
And you eat standing up and you sleep if you can,
And life becomes hell for a whale chasing man'
