"Come all ye hardy fishermen An' harken to me song, O' how the mermaid from the wrack Come ashore in Chance Along. "Her eyes was like the sea in June, Her lips was like a rose, Her voice was like a fairy bell A-ringin' crost the snows. "The Skipper he forgot the wrack, Forgot the waves a-rollin', For she had put the witchy spell On Skipper Dennis Nolan.
