Karaoké Sea Shanty Medley Home Free

There once was a ship that put to sea and the name of the ship was the Billy o' Tea

The winds blew hard

Her bow dipped down

Blow 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

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

Da da da da da da

Da da da da da da da da da

Da da da da da da

Da da da da da da

What will we do with a drunken sailor

What will we do with a drunken sailor

What will we do with a drunken sailor early in the morning

Put him in the brig until he's sober

Put him in the brig until he's sober

Put him in the brig until he's sober early in the morning

Way hay and up she rises

Way hay and up she rises

Way hay and up she rises early in the morning

Oh the wind was foul and the sea ran high

Leave her Johnny leave her

She shipped it green and none went by and it's time for us to leave her

Leave her Johnny leave her

Oh leave her Johnny leave her

For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow and it's time for us to leave her

Cape Cod ships ain't got no sails

Heave away, haul away

They'd all blown off in the Northeast gales and we're bound away for Australia

So heave her up me bully, bully boys

Heave away, haul away

Heave her up and don't you make a noise and we're bound away for Australia

Santiana gained a day

Away Santiana

Now pull the yan up the west they say along the plains of Mexico

Well heave her up and away we'll go

Away Santiana

Heave her up and away we'll go along the plains of Mexico

She's a fast clipper ship and a bully good crew

Away Santiana

And an old salty yank for a captain too along the plains of Mexico

Well heave her up and away we'll go

Away Santiana

Heave her up and away we'll go along the plains of Mexico

Santiana fought for gold

Away Santiana

Around Cape Horn through the ice and snow along the plains of Mexico

Well heave her up and away we'll go

Away Santiana

Heave her up and away we'll go along the plains of Mexico

So leave her Johnny

Off we'll go

The drunken sailor

Wellerman whaler

Bound away for Mexico
