[00:01.084]There once was a ship that put to sea
[00:03.958]The name of that ship was the Billy of Tea
[00:06.335]The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
[00:08.738]Blow, me bully boys, blow (Huh)
[00:11.403]Soon may the Wellerman come
[00:13.754]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[00:16.314]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[00:18.587]We'll take our leave and go
[00:21.094]
[00:25.300]She had not been two weeks from shore
[00:28.409]When down on her, a right whale bore
[00:30.995]The captain called all hands and swore
[00:33.398]He'd take that whale in tow (Huah)
[00:35.906]Soon may the Wellerman come
[00:38.283]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[00:40.764]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[00:42.959]We'll take our leave and go
[00:45.414]Before the boat had hit the water
[00:48.027]The whale's tail came up and caught her
[00:50.351]All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
[00:53.147]When she dived down below (Huah)
[00:55.524]Soon may the Wellerman come
[00:57.796]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[01:00.409]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[01:02.733]We'll take our leave and go
[01:05.293]Soon may the Wellerman come
[01:07.618]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[01:10.100]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[01:12.451]We'll take our leave and go
[01:15.037]
[01:19.765]No line was cut, no whale was freed
[01:22.299]The Captain's mind was not on greed
[01:24.781]But he belonged to the whaleman's creed
[01:27.210]She took that ship in tow
[01:29.613]Soon may the Wellerman come
[01:32.095]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[01:34.629]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[01:36.980]We'll take our leave and go
[01:39.044]
[01:59.080]For forty days, or even more
[02:01.431]The line went slack, then tight once more
[02:03.991]All boats were lost, there were only four
[02:06.368]But still that whale did go
[02:08.745]As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
[02:11.279]The line's not cut and the whale's not gone
[02:13.787]The Wellerman makes his a regular call
[02:16.059]To encourage the Captain, crew, and all
[02:19.063]
[02:20.480]Huah
[02:21.258]Soon may the Wellerman come
[02:23.582]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[02:26.090]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[02:28.467]We'll take our leave and go
[02:30.949]Soon may the Wellerman come
[02:33.352]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[02:35.860]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[02:38.263]We'll take our leave and go
[02:40.719]Soon may the Wellerman come
[02:43.148]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[02:45.708]One day, when the tonguin' is done
[02:47.981]We'll take our leave and go
[02:50.384]We'll take our leave and go
[02:52.761]We'll take our leave and
[02:56.444]Go
