Wellerman (Extended Mix) - Sea Shanty
Lyrics by:Addy van der Zwan/Mark Nieuwenhuijzen/Robin Snijder
There once was a ship that put to sea
The name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew up her bow dipped down
Oh blow my bully boys blow huh
She'd 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 tonguing' 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 tonguing' 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 tonguing' 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 tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
She'd 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
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 tonguing' 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 tonguing' 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 tonguing' 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 tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
Soon may the Wellerman come
One day when the tonguing' is done
Soon may the Wellerman come
One day when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
