[Verse 1: Caleb Hyles]
There once was a ship that put to sea
And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
Blow, my bully boys, blow (huh!)
[Chorus: All]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 2: Ten Second Songs]
She had 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!)
[Chorus: All]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
Onе day, when the tonguing is done
Wе'll take our leave and go
[Verse 3: Jonathan Young]
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her
Hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down below (huh!)
There once was a ship that put to sea
And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
Blow, my bully boys, blow (huh!)
[Chorus: All]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 2: Ten Second Songs]
She had 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!)
[Chorus: All]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
Onе day, when the tonguing is done
Wе'll take our leave and go
[Verse 3: Jonathan Young]
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her
Hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down below (huh!)
