Blue Sunset Crying Crakes Flying Enterprize

The crying ’crakes are calling
The crying ’crakes are calling
The crying ’crakes are calling
Across the Greatham marshes
And the shades of night are falling
The shades of night are falling
The shades of night are falling
Across the Greatham marshes
And the day will come when the sun will die
And the marshes turn to dust and the river runs dry
Sometime sometime sometime
