Just heard a song by Yesterdays Men at Ellesmere Port Shanty Fest which included those words and was about (I think) the demise of fishing in Newfoundland. I would love to sing the song - can anyone give me a pointer cos I've googled the words and got nowhere.

Is it "Companioned by the Sea"? Video of Pint & Dale singing it.

S'ok. We posted different things. The lyrics to the song (by Bob Zentz/Marjorie Howell) I linked to are on line. If that's your song, I can post them.
