Greenland Whale Fisheries [Live with Symphony Orchestra[00:00:00]
When the whale get strike and the line runs out[00:00:02]
And the whale makes a flounder with it's tail[00:00:13]
And the boat capsized and I lost my darlin' man[00:00:21]
No more no more Greenland for you brave boys[00:00:31]
No more no more Greenland for you[00:00:43]
Twas in eighteen hundred and fifty three[00:00:57]
On June the thirteenth day[00:01:03]
That our gallant ship her anchor weighed[00:01:07]
And for Greenland sailed away brave boys[00:01:13]
For Greenland sailed away[00:01:18]
The lookout on the cross tree stood[00:01:23]
With a spyglass in his hand[00:01:29]
There's a whale there's a whale[00:01:33]
There's a whale fish he cried[00:01:36]
And she blows at every span brave boys[00:01:38]
She blows at every span[00:01:44]
Well we struck and whale and the line played out[00:02:11]
But she gave a flounder with her tail[00:02:16]
And the boat capsized and four men were drowned[00:02:21]
And we never caught that whale[00:02:26]
We never caught that whale[00:02:32]
To lose that whale my captain cried[00:02:37]
It grieves my heart full sore[00:02:42]
But to lose four of my gallant men[00:02:46]
It grieves me ten times more brave boys[00:02:52]
It grieves me ten times more[00:02:57]
Oh Greenland is a dreadful place[00:03:02]
It's a land that's never green[00:03:07]
Where there's ice and snow and the whale fishes blow[00:03:12]
And daylight's seldom seen brave boys[00:03:17]
And daylight's seldom seen[00:03:22]
When the whale gets strike and the line runs out[00:03:27]
And the whale makes a flounder with it's tail[00:03:38]
And the boat capsized and I lost my darlin' man[00:03:47]
No more no more Greenland for you brave boys[00:03:56]
No more no more Greenland for you[00:04:08]
