02 Dec 09 - 11:49 AM (#2778571) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Cullercoats Bay From: The Doctor The Northumbria Anthology includes a recording of a song by this name: http://www.northumbriaanthology.com/songs.htm Unfortunately is it part of a 10 disc set, but it's worth having anyway. I believe Owen Brannigan has also recorded it. It's listed elsewhere, on the 'Wor Geordie Dialect' site, as composed by Jack Robson, but no sign so far of the words. |

23 Mar 10 - 07:30 PM (#2870391) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Cullercoats Bay From: GUEST,Brian Gallon I've known this song for many years. It is a beautiful tuneful song, and one which rightly boasts about the North East Coast. Unfortunately I only know the first verse! (Slightly different words to those that Sarah Guest quoted - above). Can someone please let me have the lyrics of the whole song. |

The men who go fishing, I've met by the score, They spin the same yarns both abroad and ashore: But give me the language that's spoken my way, Sweet music to exiles from Cullercoats Bay.

How well I remember those mates that I knew, We talked on the Bank Top as sailormen do: But when seas were raging, all ready were they, To man the old lifeboat, at Cullercoats Bay. And when I grow old, and go sailing no more, I'll make for the harbour I fondly adore: And there, in life's gloaming, with each passing day, I'll thank the Almighty for Cullercoats Bay.
