Lyrics
Heading out in showers. Trudging through the headlands.
Looking for a place to build a pier.
Ships are out there waiting beyond rocky shore
For a place to offload all their heavy cares.
Searching for a harbor by the islands. Searching for a dock on Flaggy Shore.
Searching for a harbor out at Barna. Right off west coast of Emerald Isle.
There's no place we can build it because rock is everywhere.
We would not do it now because its cold.
Trees never grew here because the wind's always intense
Its bleaker than you're knowing it could be.
Searching for a harbor by the islands. Searching for a dock on Flaggy Shore.
Searching for a harbor out at Barna. Right off west coast of Emerald Isle.
Oh man it‘s cold. Oh damn it’s cold. Oh man it’s cold today.
The wind is always blowing along the rocky ledge.
Have to go down south to get some relief
Its seems somewhat nigh impossible to find right anchorage.
Protected from the string of storms and gales.
Searching for a harbor by the islands. Searching for a dock on Flaggy Shore.
Searching for a harbor out at Barna. Right off west coast of Em’.
Right off west coast of Em’. Right off west coast of Emerald Isle.
