Wellerman Lyrics – The Wellermen

Singer: The Wellermen
Title: Wellerman

There once was a ship that put to sea
And the name of the ship was the Billy o’ Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
Blow me 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 to 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 that 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 below(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 on greed
But 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 boat 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 a 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
