Some Fishermen

(By Ernest Guthrie)

There is a very fine place
And I’ll tell you where it is,
It’s down to Harkers Island
Where some fishermen live.
They have an occupation
With which they go to work.
And when the net is in the sea,
They never try to shirk.
They make just lots of money,
With which they spend so free,
And when the crew is ready,
They never disagree.
They seem to be so happy,
I can not tell you why,
They have a thought within their minds
The fish are going by.
