[Verse 1]
'Tis advertised in Boston, New York and Buffalo
A hundred hearty sailors, a-whalin' for to go
[Chorus]
Singin' blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi-o
Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow
[Verse 2]
They tell you of the clipper ships a-runnin' in and out
They say you'll take 500 whales before you're six months out
[Chorus]
Singin' blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi-o
Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow
[Verse 3]
The skipper's on the afterdeck a-squintin' at the sails
When up above the lookout spots a mighty school of whales
[Chorus]
Singin' blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi-o
Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow
[Verse 4]
Then lower down the boats, my boys, and after him we'll travel
But if you get too near his tail, he'll kick you to the Devil
