Scott of The Mumbles
Scott was a man of dedication
Who knew that lifeboats sank and drowned the crew
He turned up to help at Mumbles Station
And - over years - his dedication grew
When the maroon went off
Scott was there
Ready to go
Ready to go
Scott was the Coxswain of the lifeboat
Aged 26 and certain what to do
A man made for saving from a lifeboat
A man made to lead the finest crew
When the maroon went off
Scott was there
Ready to go
Ready to go
Scott was a brave man in the channel
Saving ten from Kilo - and a child
To earn his first - and second - Silver Medal
Bronze for Steepholm when the seas were wild
When the maroon went off
Scott was there
Ready to go
Ready to go
Scott served thirty-three years as the Coxswain
For all the hours and days in every year
Through his centre - this man was a seaman
Brave - and still determined through his fear
When the maroon went off
Scott was there
Ready to go
Ready to go
