Eddystone Light - The Brothers Four (四兄弟)[00:00:00]

Yo ho here's a tale[00:00:05]

That's near and dear[00:00:10]

To the hearts of those that sail[00:00:11]

'Bout a lighthouse keeper and his mermaid wife[00:00:14]

Who joined together for a different life[00:00:17]

Yo ho the winds and waters tell this tale[00:00:19]

My father was the keeper of the Eddystone light[00:00:26]

He married a mermaid one fine night[00:00:28]

From this union there came three[00:00:31]

A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me[00:00:33]

Yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:00:36]

Oh for a life on the rolling sea[00:00:41]

Late one night I was trimming the glim[00:00:48]

While singing a verse from the evening hymn[00:00:50]

A voice from starboard shouted "Ahoy "[00:00:52]

And there was my mother sitting on a buoy[00:00:55]

Yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:00:57]

Oh for a life on the rolling sea[00:01:03]

"Tell me what has become of my children three "[00:01:09]

My mother she did ask of me[00:01:12]

One was exhibited as a talking fish[00:01:14]

The other was served on a chafing dish[00:01:16]

Yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:01:19]

Oh for a life on the rolling sea[00:01:24]

Then the phosphorous flashed in her seaweed hair[00:01:31]

I looked again and me mother wasn't there[00:01:33]

A voice came echoing out of the night[00:01:36]

"To Hell with the keeper of the Eddystone Light"[00:01:38]

Yo ho ho the wind blows free[00:01:41]

Oh for a life on the rolling sea[00:01:46]

Yo ho[00:01:53]

Yo ho[00:01:55]

Yo ho[00:01:57]

Yo ho[00:02:00]

Yo ho[00:02:02]

Yo ho[00:02:04]
