คอร์ด เนื้อเพลง Wellerman Nathan Evans Chordza
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 b-low, my bully boys, blow
* 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'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!
Da da da-da dat da Da-da dat da da-da da dat da
Da da da-da dat da Da-da dat da dat da
Before the boat had hit the water The wha-le's tail came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her When she dived down low
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
Da da da-da dat da Da-da dat da da-da da dat da
Da da da-da dat da Da-da dat da dat da
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
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
The winds blew up, her bow dipped down O b-low, my bully boys, blow
* 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'd not been two weeks from shore When down on her a right whale bore

Da da da-da dat da Da-da dat da da-da da dat da
