Here’s the Tender Coming The Unthanks

[Chorus]
Here's the tender coming, pressing all the men
Oh dear hinny, what'll we do then?
Here's the tender coming off at Shield's Bar
Here's the tender coming full of men-o'-war

[Verse 1]
Hide thee canny hinny, hide thyself away
Hide thee till the frigate makes for Druridge Bay
If they take thee Geordie, who's to win our bread?
Me and little Jackie better off be dead

[Chorus]
Here's the tender coming, pressing all the men
Oh dear hinny, what'll we do then?
Here's the tender coming off at Shield's Bar
Here's the tender coming full of men-o'-war

[Verse 2]
Here's the tender coming, stealing off my dear
Oh dear hinny, they'll ship you out of here
They will ship you foreign, that is what it means
Here's the tender coming, full of red marines

[Chorus]
Here's the tender coming, pressing all the men
Oh dear hinny, what'll we do then?
Here's the tender coming off at Shield's Bar
Here's the tender coming full of men-o'-war
