[00:02.85]There once was a ship that put to sea
[00:05.30]The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea
[00:07.95]The winds blew up, her bow dipped down
[00:10.25]Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh)
[00:13.09]
[00:13.10]Soon may the Wellerman come
[00:15.45]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[00:18.05]One day, when the tonguing is done
[00:20.25]We'll take our leave and go
[00:23.09]
[00:23.10]She'd not been two weeks from shore
[00:25.40]When down on her a right whale bore
[00:28.00]The captain called all hands and swore
[00:30.30]He'd take that whale in tow (huh)
[00:32.99]
[00:33.00]Soon may the Wellerman come
[00:35.45]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[00:38.00]One day, when the tonguing is done
[00:40.20]We'll take our leave and go

[00:48.20]Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[00:52.99]
[00:53.00]Before the boat had hit the water
[00:55.45]The whale's tail came up and caught her
[00:57.75]All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
[01:00.55]When she dived down low (huh)
[01:02.99]
[01:03.00]Soon may the Wellerman come
[01:05.40]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[01:08.00]One day, when the tonguing is done
[01:10.25]We'll take our leave and go
[01:12.79]
[01:12.80]No line was cut, no whale was freed
[01:15.40]The captain's mind was not of greed
[01:17.95]And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
[01:20.25]She took that ship in tow (huh)
[01:22.99]
[01:23.00]Soon may the Wellerman come
[01:25.25]To bring us sugar and tea and rum

[01:42.79]
[01:42.80]For forty days or even more
[01:45.45]The line went slack then tight once more
[01:47.95]All boats were lost, there were only four
[01:50.25]But still that whale did go (huh)
[01:52.99]
[01:53.00]Soon may the Wellerman come
[01:55.35]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
[01:58.00]One day, when the tonguing is done
[02:00.30]We'll take our leave and go
[02:02.84]
[02:02.85]As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
[02:05.45]The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
[02:08.05]The Wellerman makes his regular call
[02:10.30]To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)
[02:12.99]
[02:13.00]Soon may the Wellerman come
[02:15.40]To bring us sugar and tea and rum
