There are some lines in the rendition in the database that don't seem right, and some on the lyrics sheet that don't sound like what Mary Black is singing. I've put the words from the database, the lyrics sheet, and the recording together and come up with this amalgamation, which should be quite a bit better than what's in the database.

MEN of WORTH
(Archie Fisher)

Leave the land behind, laddie, better days to find
The companies have the money and they'll soon teach you the skills
Green fields far away, lads, the forties and the brae
Be a madman or a roustabout, they'll soon teach you to drill

But who will tend me sheep when I'm far o'er the deep?
On the Neptune or the Seaquest when the snow comes to the hill
La, la, la ....

Leave the fishing trade, lads, there's money to be made
The hand-line and the Shetland yawl are of a bygone day [alternate: hard life and the Shetlands]
Come to Aberdeen, lads; sights you've never seen!
Be a welder on the pipeline or a fitter at McVeigh

But when the job is o'er and your boat rots on the shore
How will you feed your family when the companies go away?
La, la, la ....

There's harbours to be built, lads, rigs to tow and tilt
To rest upon the ocean bed, like pylons in the sea
Pipelines to be laid and a hundred different trades
That'll pay a decent living wage to the likes of you and me

I know you're men of worth; you're the best that's in the north
Not men of greed, but men who need the work that's come your way
From Flotta to Kishorn a new industry is born
Now Peterhead and Comarty will never be the same

I know you're men of worth; you're the best that's in the north
Not men of greed, but men who need the work that's come your way
La, la, la ....
