East of Aberdeen - Craig Herbertson
Cold is she The cold North Sea She'llhowl and she'llheave And will not be subdued So raise up your glass To those who have seen her From no friendly shore But east east of Aberdeen Four hundred miles I travelled to labour To the Grey Granite City In the far far north I found myself alone In bars with no women Just men who have been East east of Aberdeen At the heliport we stewed Held by stormy weather We sweated in our suits Too tired to do much mocking We smoked and we laughed But the wind was out there talking As we waited for our flight To east east of Aberdeen The first few days Will never be forgot Ye work and ye work And ye never seemed to stop It'dbe a Hell on earth But the real Hell is the water That thunders through your dreams When you'reeast east of Aberdeen As like a wee toy The standby boat is bobbing Their three month trip Must send their brains to God They only get them back When they'vedrunk themselves sober And then they'llbe broke And east east of Aberdeen The flares o the Innes Burn like wee candles In the huge night sky There is nothing else to see And if ever you felt Humbled and Holy It'salone with these lights East east of Aberdeen Our flare burns like gold Gold and restless amber It lights up the sky The rigging and the gantry Then O'erendless skies The Northern Lights come dancing There'sangels in your dreams East east of Aberdeen Three weeks you'reon Your relief he bumps you All dressed in your suit As the cheaper fly away And it'sback down below To fourteen hours of grafting And you curse and you swear East east of Aberdeen And you lie on your bunk And dream of your woman Is she lying alone Or sharing her sorrow And the wind it sighs It'sthe voice of a lover But a lover who lies East east of Aberdeen And cold is she The cold North Sea She'llhowl and she'llheave And will not be subdued So raise up your glass To those who have seen her From no friendly shore But east east of Aberdeen Guitar score
