By the Beard of the Sea 🧔⚓ | The Wrong Pub Again

Men with hats. Men with gold. Men with medals bright and bold. None of them have a beard like that. "By the Beard of the Sea" — a coastal pub anthem for the finest flag that ever stood at a harbour door. Salt in the strands. Tar in the curls. Gulls once nested in it for a bet. Frozen stiff on the Dogger plain. Smelled of rum and mackerel tail. You don't earn that silvered sweep without the North Sea in your sleep. It's braver than the captain's log. Wiser than the harbour fog. If you doubt the tale I've told — try growing one in the winter cold. Performed by Douglas Badger The Wrong Pub Again — because someone has to be in the right wrong place. ───────────────────────── 🍺 THE WRONG PUB AGAIN Strange songs from stranger places.
