The Fisherman

from Music for Dancing and Dining by Blindhead

/

about

A song about a fisherman from an undisclosed location facing an overfished ocean, financial ruin, and the constant requests to forget it all and sing and dance with the rest of the village.

lyrics

Come with me say Lambaday, Hey Lambaday!
It’s a special day, he say. Say Lambaday!
Lambaday say come today it’s a Rumba day
But I can’t play Rumba hey, Lambaday

Hey now friends.
Listen to me
I’m just a humble man
Who lives off the sea

I never catch no fish, though
And my boat goes dry
The only sea shanties I sing
Will make you cry

Lambaday say come today it’s samba day
But I can’t play Samba hey, Lambaday
Lambaday say come today it’s Mambo day
But I can’t play Mambo hey, Lambaday

Hey now friends.
Listen to me
I’m just a humble man
Who lives off the sea

I never catch no fish
And my boat goes dry
The only sea shanties I sing
Will make you cry
