    For anyone else trying to learn these wonderful lyrics:
    I come from the mud and the wind and the wet
    From as far to the west as a man can get
    And I worked those waters for all my years
    And I got my share of triumph and tears
    Ah, the ocean’s the source of my hopes and fears
    Keep an eye on the jigger pole, hand on the gaff
    And a smiley on the line always brought a laugh
    She’s the pride of the coast, biggest of the springs
    We would carry her home past Edward King
    Unloading at the packers’ and the money would ring
    I’m Bamfield’s John Vanden
    And you might slip and stumble on the rocks at the shore
    And exult in the blast of the mighty wake’s roar
    But when you stand humbled by the ocean’s door
    Then you’ll understand just who I am
    Bamfield’s Johnnie Vanden
    Fair weather is the mask that the devil dons
    A disguise for the tempest that’s coming on
    But looking toward the west, I can always tell
    By the tint of the sky and the strength of the swell
    Who’s winning today-is it heaven or hell?
    And when unseen arms threw thundering gales
    We risked our souls on that telegraph trail
    When the listing wrecks needed us the most
    We slipped past death on the graveyard coast
    But the ocean remembers, so we never did boast
    I’m Bamfield’s John Vanden
    And you might slip and stumble on the rocks at the shore
    And exult in the blast of the mighty wake’s roar
    But when you stand humbled by the ocean’s door
    Then you’ll understand just who I am
    Bamfield’s Johnnie Vanden
    I rolled and trolled and my hands were worn
    In God’s vindictive southeast storm
    Heard the hull of the ship as it ripped and groaned
    But there is one thrill I've never known
    'T is, the love of a woman I could call my own
    So your questions of romance don’t ask me
    I’m the man who wed the Pacific sea
    Tempestuous though she may have been
    A more faithful two you never seen
    She’s kept me wise and fit and lean
    I’m Bamfield’s John Vanden
    And you might slip and stumble on the rocks at the shore
    And exult in the blast of the mighty wake’s roar
    But when you stand humbled by the ocean’s door
    Then you’ll understand just who I am
    Bamfield’s Johnnie Vanden

    It's not an Irish song, but today on Saint Patrick's day I am listening to many songs from the Isles (while sitting in the Colonies) and I very much appreciate the art of 'a cappella' singing. I'm not totally sure where the heart of my vocal range is and singing along with you all makes me want to seek out a voice coach and delve further into the art! Sainte and cheers!

      If you’re ever lucky enough to be in the band’s company and share some time with us, you might find the courage to ask what did occur there, but we might take a look at you and think ‘hmmmm, heres someone with a weighted and inflated opinion who knows nowt’ and just say Foxtrot Oscar to yer..
