Sea Shantyyy

[00:02.97] There once was a ship that put to sea

[00:05.08] The name of the ship was the Billy O' Tea

[00:07.74] The winds blew up, her bow dipped down

[00:10.13] Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh)

[00:12.84] Soon may the Wellerman come

[00:15.51] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[00:17.90] One day, when the tonguing is done

[00:20.29] We'll take our leave and go

[00:22.68] She'd not been two weeks from shore

[00:25.41] When down on her a right whale bore

[00:27.79] The captain called all hands and swore

[00:30.45] He'd take that whale in tow (huh)

[00:32.84] Soon may the Wellerman come

[00:35.27] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[00:37.93] One day, when the tonguing is done

[00:40.32] We'll take our leave and go

[00:42.73] Da-da-da-da-da

[00:44.86] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[00:47.78] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[00:52.92] Before the boat had hit the water

[00:55.04] The whale's tail came up and caught her

[00:57.97] All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her

[01:00.11] When she dived down low (huh)

[01:02.78] Soon may the Wellerman come

[01:05.17] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[01:07.57] One day, when the tonguing is done

[01:09.95] We'll take our leave and go

[01:12.88] No line was cut, no whale was freed

[01:15.28] The captain's mind was not of greed

[01:17.66] And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed

[01:20.60] She took that ship in tow (huh)

[01:23.00] Soon may the Wellerman come

[01:25.13] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[01:27.78] One day, when the tonguing is done

[01:30.18] We'll take our leave and go

[01:32.84] Da-da-da-da-da

[01:35.26] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[01:37.91] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[01:42.70] For forty days or even more

[01:45.36] The line went slack then tight once more

[01:47.75] All boats were lost, there were only four

[01:50.40] But still that whale did go (huh)

[01:53.06] Soon may the Wellerman come

[01:55.71] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[01:57.84] One day, when the tonguing is done

[02:00.24] We'll take our leave and go

[02:02.91] As far as I've heard, the fight's still on

[02:05.29] The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone

[02:07.95] The Wellerman makes his regular call

[02:10.34] To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)

[02:13.26] Soon may the Wellerman come

[02:15.41] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[02:17.79] One day, when the tonguing is done

[02:20.21] We'll take our leave and go

[02:23.14] Soon may the Wellerman come

[02:25.26] To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[02:27.94] One day, when the tonguing is done

[02:30.06] We'll take our leave and go
