Karaoké Wellerman (with Argules) Nathan Evans

There once was a ship that put to sea

The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea

The winds blew up

Her bow dipped down

O blow, my bully boys, blow

Huh

Huh

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

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

Huh

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

Before the boat had hit the water the whale's tail came up and caught her

All hands to the side

Harpooned and fought her

When she dived down low

Huh

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
