Searching for the lyrics of the version of Rowin Foula Doon by the band named Contraband. May be Norwegian. Had a Scottish singer named Sinclair Lyrics are very different from Hom Bru version. Thank you. Albaman.

Iprefer the original version but here it is

.
oot tae sea the boats a heavin Rowin Foula doon
wifes and bairns the men are leavin rowin Foula doon
we maun gang where seas are brakin
we maun gang whaur fish are takin
oot be wast the horn o Pappa Rowin Foula doon

Shoot the lines and start the baitin rowin Foula doon
haul them in nae time fur waitin rowin Foula doon
we maun gang where seas are brakin
we maun gang whaur fish are takin
oot be wast the horn o Pappa Rowin Foula doon

catchin cod and silver whiting rowin Foula doon
all toe earn your dailky living rowin foula doon
we maun gang where seas are brakin
we maun gang whaur fish are takin
oot be wast the horn o Pappa Rowin Foula doon

in the sky the winds are wailin rowin foula doon
reef the main and haul the sail in rowin foula doon
we maun gang where seas are brakin
we maun gang whaur fish are takin
oot be wast the horn o Pappa Rowin Foula doon

all around the storm is spreadin rowin Foula doon
homeward now the boats are headin rowin Foula doon
we maun gang where seas are brakin
we maun gang whaur fish are takin
oot be wast the horn o Pappa Rowin Foula doon

boats are lost and crews are missing rowin Foula doon
but them that live will still go fishing rowin Foula doon
we maun gang where seas are brakin
we maun gang whaur fish are takin
oot be wast the horn o Pappa Rowin Foula doon
