They scream on me for killing the seals.s

They begrudge me my child food then,

For where there the soil's is tbhin the blood ios thick'

Until they have lived in the cove like me

But the Green peace ships keepmsailing Screaming about the slaughter.

 An'Ler le' Bye I kill's the saeals, but Ui do not whear their coats, so go se your rich and famous- an leave the Newfoundland men alone,

Caus he has to mmake a living,

So he can feed the the wife and kid's at home

[OleTrout]

Hi newfiedream. I'm glad you liked the show. Shedding a tear at the memory of your Father is good. Memories are a gift to you from God and they will let your Dad live on forever in the hearts of all who loved him.

[OleTrout]

@coady17 I.m 65 and still have my dory, Coast Guard stopped me last week and wanted to know why I was 7 miles out in such a small boat. (They were in one of those rubber ducky things) I had to explain what thier Grandfathers used to sail and fish in and which boat I'd rather be in when the Nor'easster started tto blow!

[coady17]

@Squarekn0t couldnt of said it any better, these green peace people need to get their heads out of their ass, if we never hunted seals we wouldnt have any fish left in our waters, and they take about the ruthless killing, well they should go bitch in their own land go fight for the cows or sumthin

[thekevinkyle]

Really Really nice song.

[lyricsmith87]
