Thread Name: Lyr Req: Wings of a Goney
Subject: Lyr Req: Wings of a Goney
Can someone PM me (or post) the words to "Wings of a Goney" as originally recorded in the log of the Ocean Rover (1859)? All the versions posted here, both in the DT and in the threads on "The Whalerman's Lament" and Bertsongs, seem to be based on Lloyd's reworking, "The Weary Whaling Ground"/"Wings of a Gull".
