lyrics

COME ALL YE WISE OR SIMPLE MEN - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

TO MAN THE CARGO SHIPS AGAIN - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

WE PLACE NO STOCK IN RANK NOR NAME - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

TO THE ROLLIN’ SEAS YOU’RE ALL THE SAME - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

ALL YE HALE AND HEARTY SAILORS – HOIST THE SAILS ONCE MORE

THERE’S PLENTY OF FOOD FOR THE MEN THAT WORK - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

AND MOLDY BREAD FOR THOSE THAT SHIRK - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

NOW COINS ARE SCARCE, I’M SURE YOU KNOW - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

SO SIGN ABOARD AND GET BELOW - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS



LEAVE BEHIND ALL YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS

SET THE COURSE FOR FOREIGN WATERS – SAIL ME HEARTIES, SAIL

WAVE GOOD-BYE TO YOUR WIVES AND LOVERS

CUT THE ROPES AND CLEAR THE SCUPPERS – SAIL ME HEARTIES, SAIL
SET THE COURSE FOR FOREIGN WATERS – SAIL ME HEARTIES, SAIL

WAVE GOOD-BYE TO YOUR WIVES AND LOVERS

CUT THE ROPES AND CLEAR THE SCUPPERS – SAIL ME HEARTIES, SAIL
 
THERE’LL BE NO JOKING WITH YOUR FRIENDS - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

THERE’S DECKS TO WASH AND SAILS TO MEND - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

YOU’LL GET NO REST AROUND THE HORN - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

YOU’LL WISH, BY GUM, YOU’D NEVER BEEN BORN - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

LEAVE BEHIND ALL YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS

SET THE COURSE FOR FOREIGN WATERS – SAIL ME HEARTIES, SAIL

WAVE GOOD-BYE TO YOUR WIVES AND LOVERS

CUT THE ROPES AND CLEAR THE SCUPPERS – SAIL ME HEARTIES, SAIL

AND WHEN AT LAST YOU’RE BACK ON SHORE - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

YOU’LL SWEAR TO GOD YOU’LL SAIL NO MORE - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

YOU’LL PLEDGE AN OATH TO NEVER LEAVE HOME - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

TILL YOU HEAR THE CALL FROM THE BRINY FOAM - SKIPPERS & MATES & DECKHANDS

ALL YE RUGGED SALTY SAILORS – HOIST THE SAILS ONCE MORE

HOIST THE SAILS ONCE MORE – WE’RE BOUND TO LEAVE THIS SHORE

HOIST THE SAILS ONCE MORE

Naming The Twins image

Naming The Twins Shelburne, Nova Scotia

Naming the Twins is the Nova Scotia based guy gal duo of Robbie Smith & Kath Glauser who sound a little bit like Peter, Paul and Mary if one of the fellows took the night off, a bit like Simon & Garfunkel if Art was a girl, a bit like Gordon Lightfoot or Stan Rogers if either had a girl harmonizer.
Not twins by birth, but twins at heart, they share a sibling like sense of humour and harmony. ... more
