Mingulay (Explicit)

What care we though white the Minch is?

What care we for windy weather?

Bring her head ‘round, every inch is

Sailin' homeward to Mingulay

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Bring her head ‘round into the weather

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Sailin' homeward to Mingulay

Wives are waiting on the banks and

They're looking seaward through the weather

Their anxious eyes look ever seaward

Wishin’ us home, me boys, to Mingulay

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Bring her head ‘round into the weather

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Sailin' homeward to Mingulay

When the wind is wild with shouting

And the waves climb ever higher

Just bring her head ‘round and we'll anchor

'Ere the sun sets on Mingulay

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Bring her head ‘round into the weather

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Sailin' homeward to Mingulay

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Bring her head ‘round into the weather

Heel yer ho, boys

Let her go, boys

Sailin' homeward to Mingulay
