Fisherman Lyrics[Chorus]
Row, fisherman, row
Keep on rowing your boat (Brotherman, brotherman)
Yeah, row, fisherman, row
Lots of hungry belly pickney, they a shore (Millions of them)
Lots of hungry belly pickney, they a shore

[Verse 1]
Living in a bamboo hut (In a little old sea-port town)
Three kids on the floor (And another one to come make four)
Day, day by day (I man step it along the sea shore)
Day, day by day (I man step it along the sea shore)
Hail, brother John, have you got any wenchman
Yes, brother Peter (Wenchman, sprat and mackaba)
Yes, brother Peter (Wenchman, sprat and mackaba)

Row, fisherman, row
Keep on rowing your boat (Brotherman, brotherman)
