30 Mar 12 - 05:41 AM (#3331020) Subject: Lyr Req: Greenlander From: Barb'ry I'm looking for the lyrics to a song from a Mawkin Causley CD - I've lost the cover so can't find who wrote the song or any other info apart from the fact that it's called 'The Greenlander'. The chorus starts: I am a Greenlander bound out from Newcastle Town Like a swallow I'll follow him north to the cold Arctic ground And the good folk of Sheilds on quaysides and keels Say farewell the Greenlander bound out from Newcastle Town' Or words to that effect. Does anyone have any ideas - it isn't in DT. Many thanks Barb |
