Glashtyn Shanty -

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho

Glashtyn go

Down to the river below

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho

Glashtyn go

Down to the river below

Gack and forth in the barleybroom

To and fro we haul away

Glashtyn revel in the silken gloom

To and fro we haul away

«Lads this tea will never do.»

Haul away, haul away

Tears to turn these waters blue

Glashtyn haul away

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Down in the river below

Gain adventure, give a little grief

To and fro we haul away

Dark cool waters our toil and relief

To and fro we haul away

Send your smiling shadow down

Haul away, haul away

To call the dance in Glashtyn town

Glashtyn haul away

When the tithe came callin', where were you?

When the tithe comes callin', there is nothing you can do

Haul away haul away haul away

Haul away haul away haul away

Heave ho Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho, you must go

Down to the river below

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho, you must go

Down to the river below

Law of trade and sacred trust

Haul away, haul away

Wings all bound so none can cross

Haul away, haul away

Never more than one or two

Haul away, haul away

Glashtyn do as we must do

Glashtyn haul away

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho, a child must go

Down to the river below

Heave ho, Glashtyn go

Tug the ferry to and fro

Heave ho, a child must go

Down to the river below

Haul away, haul away, haul away!

Haul away, haul away, haul away!

Haul away, haul away, haul away!

Haul away, haul away, haul away
