The words don't fit the tune. Her father knew more about it but he isn't well, he first heard it sung by the local fishermen in 1914. Local Churchgoers like Topsie White and Martin Westlake would come round and sing it to that tune on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. 'There always would be a crowd singing'. 1991-01-12 Beer, Devon, England, UK English sound Davey, Mary (speaker, female interviewee) Davey, Mr A. W.
