Wellerman

There once was a ship that put to sea
 And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
 The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
 Blow, me bully boys, blow
 She had not been two weeks from shore
 When down on her a right whale bore
 The captain called all hands and swore
 He'd take that whale in tow
 Soon may the Wellerman come
 To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 One day, when the tonguin' is done
 We'll take our leave and go
 Soon may the Wellerman come
 To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 One day, when the tonguin' is done
 We'll take our leave and go

 The captain called all hands and swore
 He'd take that whale in tow
 Before the boat had hit the water
 The whale's tail come up and caught her
 All hands to the side
 Harpooned and fought her
 When she dived down below
 Soon may the Wellerman come
 To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 One day, when the tonguin' is done
 We'll take our leave and go
 Soon may the Wellerman come
 To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 One day, whe the tonguin' is done
 We'll take our leave and go
