Trad The boatie rows, the boatie rows,
the boatie rows fu' weel
And muckle luck maintain the boat, the mackerel
and the creel
O weel may the boatie row and muckle
may she speed
Weel may the boatie row that wins oor bairnies'
breid
We dropped oor line in Largo Bay and
fishes we got nine
There's three tae boil and three tae fry and
three tae bait the line
When Sandy, Jock and Janet too are up
and gotten lear
They'll help tae gar the boatie row and lighten
a' oor care
O weel may the boatie row that fills a
heavy creel
And helps tae clad oor bairns and a' and buys oor
porridge meal
Repeat 1
As sung by Cilla Fisher
