[Intro]
Well, the whalefish struck
And the line run out
But the whale made a flourish with her tail
Then the boat capsized
Ten men were drowned
No more, no more Greenland for you, brave boys
No more, no more Greenland for you
[Verse 1]
'Twas in eighteen hundred and sixty-three
On June the thirteenth day
When our gallant ship her anchor weighed
And for Greenland sailed away, brave boys
For Greenland sailed away
[Verse 2]
The lookout in the crosstrees stood
A spyglass in his hand
"It's a whale! It's a whale! It's a whalefish!" he cried
"And she blows from every span, brave boys
She blows from every span!"
[Verse 3]
We struck that whale but the line ran out
And the whale made a flourish with her tail
When the boat capsized ten men were drowned
And we never caught that whale, brave boys
We never caught that whale
Well, the whalefish struck
And the line run out
But the whale made a flourish with her tail
Then the boat capsized
Ten men were drowned
No more, no more Greenland for you, brave boys
No more, no more Greenland for you
[Verse 1]
'Twas in eighteen hundred and sixty-three
On June the thirteenth day
When our gallant ship her anchor weighed
And for Greenland sailed away, brave boys
For Greenland sailed away
[Verse 2]
The lookout in the crosstrees stood
A spyglass in his hand
"It's a whale! It's a whale! It's a whalefish!" he cried
"And she blows from every span, brave boys
She blows from every span!"
[Verse 3]
We struck that whale but the line ran out
And the whale made a flourish with her tail
When the boat capsized ten men were drowned
And we never caught that whale, brave boys
We never caught that whale
