Is it worth itA new winter coat and shoes for the wifeAnd a bicycle on the boy's birthday?It's just a rumor that was spread around townBy the women and childrenSoon we'll be shipbuildingWell, I ask you, the boy said"Dad, they're going to take me to task but I'll be back by Christmas"It's just a rumor that was spread around townSomebody said that someone got filled inFor saying that people get killed in the result of this shipbuildingWith all the will in the worldDiving for dear life when we could be diving for pearlsIt's just a rumor that was spread around townA telegram or a picture postcardWithin weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyardsAnd notifying the next of kin once againIt's all we're skilled in, we will be shipbuildingWith all the will in the worldDiving for dear life when we could be diving for pearls

Fantastic version

She put out a fantastic album around 1989-1991 called Some Other Time, with her take on some jazz "standards". The album didn't seem to make a wide impact and was probably not considered a success so is very hard to find... but it's absolutely brilliant. I had it on tape and used to listen on my Walkman nonstop, blown away by Huw Warren's piano work and really all the performers together with June.

Check out her version of 'And The Band Played Waltzing Mathilda'.

have a listen to June's cover of the Grey Funnell Line, you can taste the salt spray, see the sad faces of lonely sailors, Tabor's voice is unique and thus is able to tell stories in song, a talent few have.

It's just a rumour that was spread around town Somebody said that someone got filled in For saying that people get killed in The result of this shipbuilding With all the will in the world Diving for dear life When we could be diving for pearls

I heard her on BBC Radio 3 a few moths back singing a jazzy song, and I just had to stop and listen: I'd never heard of her before to my shame. Saw her live with the Oyster Band in Brighton recently, they were all just brilliant! What a fabulous voice -

I've come to June Tabor's music pretty late in life but have to say quite simply that this is a stunning version. Wonderful!

I find this incredibly moving - esp. the last line, with the return to the minor chord on "diving for pearls". Heard it on NPR last night and had to search it out! Thank you, June!
