Lyrics:

There were manys a sailor from every bay
That worked on the schooners and sailed away
They went through the Banks to earn their pay
Row, you dorymen, row
Well, they fished for 40 days or more
On the Banks and on the Labrador
They fished 'til they could hold no more
Row, you dorymen, row
Someday the weather will come
When we'll hoist our sails, and we will run
In the fog, and the rain, and the sleet, and the sun
Row, you dorymen, row
Now the dorymen they will row away
From the schooner, and they'll be gone all day
They won't be gone too far away
Row, you dorymen, row
When the dorymen set their trawls, they sing
When they haul 'em back, the gunwales will ring
They'll wait for the schooner's bell to bing
Row, you dorymen, row
Someday the weather will come
When we'll hoist our sails, and we will run
In the fog, and the rain, and the sleet, and the sun
Row, you dorymen, row
Someday the weather will come
When we'll hoist our sails, and we will run
In the fog, and the rain, and the sleet, and the sun
Row, you dorymen, row

When the dorymen, they are back from port
They'd split the fish and salt some more
Pour them down in the hold to store
Row, you dorymen, row
Now they head the schooners back to shore
From the Banks and from the Labrador
They know that they'll be back for more
Row, you dorymen, row
But the doryman's job does not end there
He'll get the fish upon the pier
Dry out in the cool fall air
Row, you dorymen, row
Someday the weather will come
When we'll hoist our sails, and we will run
In the fog, and the rain, and the sleet, and the sun
Row, you dorymen, row
Someday the weather will come
When we'll hoist our sails, and we will run
In the fog, and the rain, and the sleet, and the sun
Row, you dorymen, row
