There’s lots of fish in Bonavist Harbour,
Lots of fish right in around here;
Boys and girls are fishin’ together,
Fourty-five from Carbonear.
Catch a-hold this one, catch a-hold that one,
Swing around this one, dance around she;
Dance around this one, dance around that one,
Did-dle dum this one, did-dle dum-dee.
From ancient times to the present day
There have been those who have…???
So driven by the will to possess
Have pursued it to the very ends of the earth
We enter into it, it enters into us
We enter into it, it enters into us
As the wheel spins and turns from the words I seem to have learned
We enter into it, it enters into us
Fortune smiles upon our heads
???…cling to the wall and wait
How we believe we seem to forgive and forget
Immersed in the security of our view of our world
There are those of you among us
Barren waiting places and empty skies
They’re…???…of our ways…???…the silent account
They will leave behind the…???…of a faceless child
We enter into it, it enters into us
We enter into it, it enters into us
As the wheel spins and turns from the words I seem to have learned
We enter into it, it enters into us
Fortune smiles upon our heads
???…cling to the wall and wait
How we believe we seem to forgive and forget
Immersed in the security of our view of our world
Fortune smiles upon our heads
Fortune smiles upon our heads
