Karine Polwart (born 1971) is a Scottish singer-songwriter. She writes and performs music with a strong folk and roots feel, and her songs cover a wide area, from alcoholism to genocide.
Despite winning the Horizon Award for Best Newcomer at the BBC Folk Awards 2005, Karine Polwart is no newcomer to the folk world, having previously been a member of Malinky and Battlefield Band. Her solo career is new, and it is for this that she has been particularly recognised.

DEA I’m gonna sail right out on the Atlantic DEA I’m gonna catch me a fish that’s bigger than gigantic DE I’m gonna cook up a fine fish tea AD It will be like some kind of Galilee DEA I’m gonna do it all some day
CHORUS EDA I’m gonna do it all some day EDE I’m gonna do it all some day EmF# You may not believe a word I say DEA But I tell you I’m gonna do it all some day
DEA I’m gonna climb way over that old mountain DEA I’m gonna shout in a place where no-one hears me shouting DE I’m gonna swear so loud AD I’ll strip the silver lining from a cloud EA I’m gonna do it all some day
CHORUS
DEA I’m gonna fly in a silver winged space rocket DEA I’m gonna pick out the stars and put them in my pocket DE I’m gonna bring those stars back down AD So I can spread celestial light around DEA I’m gonna do it all some day
