Up I pulls them the next day to see what luck has come my way I shake them about and sort them out as easy as you please. Everyday I tries new ground out I spreads me pots around I counts me catch weighs a batch as easy as you please. Up I boils them every night; to the minute I cooks 'em right All clean and pink and in the sink as easy as you please. Up next day round about ten I sells them to the stalls again I take a drink, a nod and a wink as easy as you please. By afternoon tide it's off I sails, every day I seldom fails But if I do, it's bugger you as easy as you please! (Copyright: Keith Scowcroft/Derek Gifford February 1989) |
