What had you for supper my own darling boy?
What had you for your supper my comfort and my joy?
I had fish all from the Irish sea
Mother make my bed soon
I have a pain in my heart now
Wouldn't I long to lie down

What will you leave your wife now my own darling boy?
Oh what will you leave your wife my comfort and my joy?
I will leave her with compensation
See can fight for it when I'm gone
I have a pain in my heart now
Wouldn't I long to lie down

What will you leave your son now my own darling boy?
Oh what will you leave your son my comfort and my joy?
I will leave him my job at Sellafield
So that he won't need to sign on
I have a pain in my heart now
Wouldn't I long to lie down.
