BY THEAuTHoR Of g ALTON LOCKE
Three fishers went sailing out into the West
Out into the WeSt as the sun went down
Each thought of the woman that loved him the best
And the children stood watching them out of the town
For men must work. and women must weep
And there's little to earn, and many keep,
Though the harbor bar be moaning
Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower,
And trimmed the lamps as the sun went down
And they looked at the squ they looked the shower
- And the rack 1t came rolling up, ragged and brown;
But men must work, and women must weep
ThOug h storms be sudden and waters deep
And the harbor bar be mourning
Three corpses lay out on the shining sands
In the evening CLEAN the sun went downs
And TIE women watching and wringng their hands
For those that will come back to the town;
+ or men must work, and women must weep,
And the sooner it's over, the sooner to sleep.
And goodbye to the bar and its moaning.
