Greenland Whale Fisheries—The Pogues[00:00:01]

In eighteen hundred and forty-six[00:00:16]

And of March the eighteenth day [00:00:19]

We hoisted our colors to the top of the mast[00:00:22]

And for Greenland sailed away brave boys [00:00:26]

And for Greenland sailed away [00:00:30]

The lookout in the crosstrees stood[00:00:34]

With spyglass in his hand;[00:00:38]

There's a whale there's a whale [00:00:41]

And a whalefish he cried[00:00:43]

And she blows at every span brave boys[00:00:45]

She blows at every span [00:00:50]

The captain stood on the quarter deck [00:00:53]

The ice was in his eye;[00:00:57]

Overhaul overhaul Let your gibsheets fall [00:01:00]

And you'll put your boats to sea brave boys[00:01:04]

And you'll put your boats to sea [00:01:08]

Our harpoon struck and the line played out [00:01:12]

With a single flourish of his tail [00:01:16]

He capsized the boat and we lost five men [00:01:19]

And we did not catch the whale brave boys [00:01:23]

And we did not catch the whale [00:01:27]

The losing of those five jolly men [00:01:45]

It grieved the captain sore [00:01:48]

But the losing of that fine whalefish[00:01:52]

Now it grieved him ten times more brave boys[00:01:55]

Now it grieved him ten times more [00:02:00]

Oh Greenland is a barren land[00:02:04]

A land that bares no green[00:02:08]

Where there's ice and snow and the whalefishes blow[00:02:11]

And the daylight's seldom seen brave boys[00:02:15]

And the daylight's seldom seen[00:02:19]
