HEAVE YA HO is definitely not the Mingulay Boat song.It starts:
Man your boats, and leave "The Whale"
What care we for calm or gale
I'd take a drink for as long as you can
And brandy's good (I can't make out what he sings here)CHORUS: Heave ya ho, and away we'll go
Heave ya ho, and away-o
Heave ya ho, and away we'll go
Heave ya ho, and away-oWait ye young Lads, there all the same,
Mag and Meg and Jeanie and Jane
Oh how they laugh when we sail
But oh how they're gone when (I can't make out what he sings here) CHORUS.From here, I completely re-wrote the song. I am hoping that, seeing the beginning of the song, someone else might be able to pick up where I left off.
