Subject: The Fisher Laddie
From: Conrad Bladey (Peasant- Inactive)
The Fisher Laddie On Bamboroughshire's rocky shire,
Just as you enter Bowmer Raw,
There lives the bonny fisher lad,
The fisher lad that bangs them a'. Chorus-
O the Bonny fisher lad,
That breings the fishes fra' the sea;
O the bonny fisher lad,
The fisher lad gat had of me. My mother sent me out one day,
To gather cockles fra' the sea;
But I had not been long away,
When the fisher lad gat had of me. A sailor I will never marry,
Nor soldier, for he's got no brass;
But I will have a fisher lad
Because I am a fisher's lass. -Bell
