about

The expression 'by hook or by crook' emerged from the time when Irish sailors went off to to the navy and there were two villages call Hook and Crook one on either side of the river Suir which divided County Waterford and County Wexford.

lyrics

Took our leave from the head of Hook
cloudy, black, and no sky appears
sailed seven seas to the coast of Crook
every man jack one of us
every man jack one of us

The captain crooned and the crew was shook
the sea subsumed the full blown sails
the devil take the souls of hook
every man jack one of us
every man jack one of us
