The Merman - The Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

I'm a sailorman from Wexford town [00:00:12]

I've sailed the seven seas [00:00:16]

I will tell you a true story[00:00:18]

Of the sunny southern seas [00:00:21]

We were caught up in the doldrums[00:00:24]

While waiting for a breeze[00:00:26]

When the stillness of the day was broke[00:00:29]

By a merman in the deep blue seas [00:00:32]

Well the captain he slept below[00:00:36]

While the crew they lay a bout[00:00:39]

When down in the ocean boys[00:00:42]

We heard this mighty shout [00:00:45]

His hair was red his eyes were green [00:00:47]

His beard was floating free[00:00:50]

He'd a long green tail that could kill a wale[00:00:53]

That waggled in the deep blue sea [00:00:56]

An the mermaids looked so beautiful[00:01:00]

As they swam around by the shore[00:01:03]

But this merman with his fishy tail[00:01:05]

I've never seen be fore [00:01:08]

And sailors tell the tallest tales[00:01:11]

I've never told a lie;[00:01:14]

He'd a long green tail that could kill a wale[00:01:16]

That wobbled as he swam close by [00:01:20]

Was it Neptune that appeared to us[00:01:29]

From his mansions in the deep [00:01:32]

Then the cook O'Toole then he ran below [00:01:35]

Woke the captain from his sleep [00:01:38]

And the captain came on deck at once[00:01:40]

Took a look into the deep [00:01:43]

"Oh I've never seen the likes of this "[00:01:46]

The merman then he soon did greed [00:01:49]

"Then who are you where do you come from [00:01:53]

What do you want here "[00:01:56]

Then he shook his tail it rocked the boat [00:01:58]

It filled our hearts with fear [00:02:01]

"You've dropped your anchor on my house [00:02:04]

It's blocking up me door[00:02:07]

And my wife the mermaid she's trapped inside[00:02:09]

And my children can't get out no more [00:02:12]

An the mermaids looked so beautiful[00:02:16]

As they swam around by the shore[00:02:19]

But this merman with his fishy tail[00:02:22]

I've never seen be fore [00:02:25]

And sailors tell the tallest tales[00:02:27]

I've never told a lie;[00:02:30]

He'd a long green tail that could kill a wale[00:02:33]

That wobbled as he swam close by [00:02:36]

Well we quickly hoisted anchor boys[00:02:46]

And the merman than did smile[00:02:48]

"Sure me name is Patrick John O'Rourke [00:02:51]

I came from Erin's isle [00:02:54]

It was many years a go from now [00:02:57]

I was shipwrecked on the reef [00:03:00]

When this pretty mermaid she rescued me [00:03:02]

From the perils of the ocean deep [00:03:05]

And we very soon were married [00:03:09]

Way down in the deep blue seas [00:03:12]

Now I'm happy and con tented [00:03:15]

With my wife and fami ly [00:03:18]

Though I oft times wish I could go home[00:03:20]

And life on Ireland's shore [00:03:23]

But I'm co mmitted to the ocean deep[00:03:26]

And I can't go home a gain no more "[00:03:29]

An the mermaids looked so beautiful[00:03:33]

As they swam around by the shore[00:03:35]

But this merman with his fishy tail[00:03:38]

I've never seen be fore [00:03:41]

And sailors tell the tallest tales[00:03:44]

I've never told a lie;[00:03:47]

He'd a long green tail that could kill a wale[00:03:49]

That wobbled as he swam close by [00:03:53]

An the mermaids looked so beautiful[00:03:56]

As they swam around by the shore[00:03:59]

But this merman with his fishy tail[00:04:02]

I've never seen be fore [00:04:05]

And sailors tell the tallest tales[00:04:07]

I've never told a lie;[00:04:11]

He'd a long green[00:04:13]
