The Message Lyrics - John Martyn

Every day and all night 

I'm trying to tell you're all right 

Every day and every night 

I try to tell you it's black and white. 

And though I know it's your life and your time 

And I know that it makes you feel fine 

Don't you know that it's wrong 

If you let life do that to you, love. 

Step we gaily on we go 

Heel for heel and toe for toe 

Arm and arm and row and row 

All for Mhairi's wedding. 

Plenty herring, plenty meal 

Plenty fish to fill the creel 

Plenty bonnie bairns as well 

That's the toast for Mhairi.

Every day and all night 

You're trying to tell me you're all right 

Every day and all night 

You're trying to tell me it's black and white. 

And though I know that it makes you feel fine 

And I know it's your life and your time 

Don't you know that it's wrong 

If you let life do that to you, love. 

Step we gaily on we go 

Heel for heel and toe for toe 

Arm and arm and row and row 

All for Mhairi's wedding. 

Plenty herring, plenty meal 

Plenty fish to fill the creel 

Plenty bonnie bairns as well 

That's the toast for Mhairi. 

Step we gaily on we go 

Heel for heel and toe for toe 

Arm and arm and row and row 

All for Mhairi's wedding. 

Plenty herring, plenty meal 

Plenty fish to fill the creel 

Plenty bonnie bairns as well 

That's the toast for Mhairi
