Eddystone Light - The Weavers[00:00:00]
My father was the keeper[00:00:05]
Of the eddystone light[00:00:06]
And corded a mermaid one fine night[00:00:07]
From this union there came free[00:00:10]
A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me[00:00:13]
Yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:00:16]
Oh for the life on the rolling sea[00:00:18]
One night while I was trimming of the glim[00:00:24]
Singing a verse from the evening hymn[00:00:27]
A voice from the starboard shouted ahoy[00:00:29]
And there was me mother a sitting on the buoy[00:00:32]
Don't be ridiculous the buoy is a jubilant male[00:00:35]
No a buoy it guides the ships to sail[00:00:37]
Tell me what has become[00:00:45]
Of my children of three[00:00:46]
My mother then she asked of me[00:00:48]
One was exhibited as a talking fish[00:00:51]
And the other was served on a chafing dish[00:00:53]
Yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:00:56]
Oh for the life on the rolling sea[00:00:59]
Then the phosphorous flashed[00:01:04]
In her seaweed hair[00:01:05]
I looked again my mother wasn't there[00:01:07]
Her voice came echoing out of the night[00:01:10]
Where the devil with the keeper[00:01:12]
Of the eddystone light[00:01:14]
Oh yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:01:15]
Oh for the life on the rolling sea[00:01:18]
