Northern Ireland Sea ShantiesNorthern Ireland Sea Shanties

(Verse 1)
Oh, the winds they blow, and the storms they roar,
In Northern Ireland, by the shore,
The schools are closed, the children stay,
As the BBC reports the day.

(Chorus)
Rowandale, Rowandale, stay safe and sound,
The weather's fierce, the storms abound,
We'll weather the storm, we'll stay inside,
Until the tempest has subsided.

(Verse 2)
The teachers wait, the parents too,
For news from the BBC, what to do,
The classrooms empty, the playgrounds still,
As the winds blow hard over hill and hill.

(Chorus)
Rowandale, Rowandale, stay safe and sound,
The weather's fierce, the storms abound,
We'll weather the storm, we'll stay inside,
Until the tempest has subsided.

(Verse 3)
The storm will pass, the skies will clear,
And soon we'll all be back with cheer,
But for now, we'll heed the call,
To stay at home and protect us all.

(Chorus)
Rowandale, Rowandale, stay safe and sound,
The weather's fierce, the storms abound,
We'll weather the storm, we'll stay inside,
Until the tempest has subsided.

(Verse 1)
From Everton to Liege, and now to West Brom's shore,
Isaac Price, the midfielder, is ready to score,
A box-to-box player with a dynamic style,
He's ready to show his worth, mile by mile.

(Chorus)
Oh, Isaac Price, he's the Albion's new pride,
With a four-year contract, he's ready to stride,
From Northern Ireland to the Hawthorns' ground,
He's here to make his mark, with skill profound.

(Verse 2)
With eighteen caps and six goals to his name,
A hat-trick against Bulgaria brought him fame,
In Belgium's Pro League, he played with might,
Now in West Brom's colors, he'll shine so bright.

(Chorus)
Oh, Isaac Price, he's the Albion's new pride,
With a four-year contract, he's ready to stride,
From Northern Ireland to the Hawthorns' ground,
He's here to make his mark, with skill profound.

(Verse 3)
The fans have faith, the manager too,
With Price on the field, they're ready to pursue,
A play-off spot, a chance to rise,
With Isaac Price, they'll reach the skies.

(Chorus)
Oh, Isaac Price, he's the Albion's new pride,
With a four-year contract, he's ready to stride,
From Northern Ireland to the Hawthorns' ground,
He's here to make his mark, with skill profound.

(Verse 1)
From Cambridge to Newry, the waste will sail,
Across the sea, on a recycling trail,
To increase the rates, from eighty to high,
But the cost and impact, they cannot deny.

(Chorus)
Oh, the waste it goes, across the sea so wide,
To Northern Ireland's shores, with a recycling stride,
The council debates, the impact they weigh,
But the contract stands, it won't be delayed.

(Verse 2)
Councillor Hauk, he raised a concern,
The carbon footprint, we must discern,
But the amendment failed, the support was few,
And the waste will travel, to Newry it's true.

(Chorus)
Oh, the waste it goes, across the sea so wide,
To Northern Ireland's shores, with a recycling stride,
The council debates, the impact they weigh,
But the contract stands, it won't be delayed.

(Verse 3)
Rosy Moore, she said with pride,
This contract's the best, with nothing to hide,
She'll report back soon, with data to show,
The impact and footprint, so all will know.

(Chorus)
Oh, the waste it goes, across the sea so wide,
To Northern Ireland's shores, with a recycling stride,
The council debates, the impact they weigh,
But the contract stands, it won't be delayed.
