Donovan Leitch The Tinker And The Crab Lyrics

The Tinker And The Crab Lyrics

On the windy beach the sun is shining through with



weather fair



White horses riding on the seas pasture onto the



sand



Over the Dunes came a travelling man



Sack on back Wild flowers in his hand



Old rusty cans, pebbles 'bedded in the sand stand



and stare







Scratching his beard through the grass he steered



his sandy shoe



Disappearing in the dips pondering and wandering



along



Nice as you please comes the travelling man



Drinking a bottle of milk in his hand



Speaking to no one in particular but happily







Down where the gulls dance driftwood lying drying



for the fire



Yellow beak and sleek now the gulls are crying



flying higher



Out from the sea came a little green Crab



Taking the Sun the morning being very drab



Old rusty cans, pebbles 'bedded in the sand stand



and stare







The Tinker and the Crab



The Tinker and the Crab



The Tinker and the Crab
