In eighteen hundred and forty-six | |
And of March the eighteenth day, | |
We hoisted our colors to the top of the mast | |
And for Greenland sailed away, brave boys, | |
And for Greenland sailed away. | |
The lookout in the crosstrees stood | |
With spyglass in his hand; | |
There's a whale, there's a whale, | |
And a whalefish he cried | |
And she blows at every span, brave boys | |
She blows at every span. | |
The captain stood on the quarter deck, | |
The ice was in his eye; | |
Overhaul, overhaul! Let your gibsheets fall, | |
And you'll put your boats to sea, brave boys | |
And you'll put your boats to sea. | |
Our harpoon struck and the line played out, | |
With a single flourish of his tail, | |
He capsized the boat and we lost five men, | |
And we did not catch the whale, brave boys, | |
And we did not catch the whale. | |
The losing of those five jolly men, | |
It grieved the captain sore, | |
But the losing of that fine whalefish | |
Now it grieved him ten times more, brave boys | |
Now it grieved him ten times more. | |
Oh Greenland is a barren land | |
A land that bares no green | |
Where there's ice and snow, and the whalefishes blow | |
And the daylight's seldom seen, brave boys | |
And the daylight's seldom seen. |
