Where hes' te' been, maw canny hinny?
Where hes ti' been, maw winsome man?
Aw've been ti' the norrard, Crusing back and forrard,
Aw've been ti' the norrard, Crusing sair and lang;
Aw've been ti' the norrard, Crusing back and forrard,
But daurna come ashore For Bover and his gang.

Conrad, it's a pity I hadn't checked earlier but I'd just finished notating this song which is in the DT as Weary Cutters. My source was North Country Songs - Malcolm Williamson (1970). I can't access your MIDI link at this stage, but I'll presume for the time being that our two tunes are the same. Regards, John
