Wellerman

Nathan Evans

There once was a ship that put to sea

The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea

The winds blew up her bow dipped down

O blow my bully boys blow huh

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

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 huh

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

Before the boat had hit the water

The whale's tail came up and caught her

All hands to the side harpooned and fought her

When she dived down low huh

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

No line was cut no whale was freed

The captain's mind was not of greed

And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed

She took that ship in tow huh

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

For forty days or even more

The line went slack then tight once more

All boats were lost there were only four

But still that whale did 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

As far as I've heard the fight's still on

The line's not cut and the whale's not gone

The Wellerman makes his regular call

To encourage the captain crew and all

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
