Trawlerman's song - Mark Knopfler

Lyrics
words to study

We're taking on water

Diesel and stores

Laying up awhile

Before I'm back on board

They're patching her up

To go fishing again

They're welding her rudder

Scrubbing her keel

Scars on her belly

Need time to heal

In the dock

With the trawlermen

I know all the people

There's nobody new

Soon we'll be leaving

With the same old crew

On the green water

The tumbling sea

They ain't running

Like the good old days

Time's just slipping

Down the old slipways
