Summary

A song of homesickness by a man who has had to go to the city of Glasgow for employment in the shipyards, building a cruise ship. He is tired of working in the holds with the noise, the banging and the hard hammer blows, and wishes he was a fisherman on the high seas again, rather than in the shipyards in Govan.
