Three Fishers (Live) - Joan Baez

Written by：Billy Strayhorn/Duke Ellington

Three fishers went sailing out into the west

Out into the west as the sun went down

Each thought on the woman that loves him the best

And the children stood watching them out of the town

For men must work and women must weep

For there's little to earn and many to keep

And the harbor bar be moaning

Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower

They trimmed the lamps as the sun went down

And they looked at the squall and they looked at the shower

And the night wrack came rolling in ragged and brown

For men must work and women must weep

'Though storms be sudden and the waters be deep

And the harbor bar be moaning

Three corpses lay out on the shining sand

In the morning gleam as the tide went down

And the women were weeping and wringing their hands

For those who would never come back to the town

For men must work and women must weep

And the sooner it's over the sooner to sleep

And good bye to that bar and its moaning
