Looking for the lyrics for this song. It was sung by Manson grant on one of his cassettes. I know some of the history behind this song because my mother is from Orkney. the last time I was up there i saw the memorial to the crew who tragically lost their lives.

I figure that would be Manson Grant and the Dynamos, a country-western band from Wick, Caithness, Scotland.

I found a few mentions of their cassettes, but no song lists or lyrics.

This page has a contact phone number.
