Greenland Whale Fisheries - Lady Godiva[00:00:00]
In eighteen hundred and forty six[00:00:00]
And of march the eighteenth day[00:00:06]
We hoisted our colors to the top of the mast[00:00:12]
And for greenland sailed away brave boys[00:00:19]
And for greenland sailed away[00:00:28]
In eighteen hundred and forty six[00:00:42]
And of march the eighteenth day[00:00:45]
We hoisted our colors to the top of the mast[00:00:48]
And for greenland sailed away brave boys[00:00:52]
And for greenland sailed away[00:00:55]
The lookout in the crosstrees stood[00:00:59]
With spyglass in his hand[00:01:02]
There's a whale there's a whale[00:01:05]
And a whalefish he cried[00:01:06]
And she blows at every span brave boys[00:01:08]
And she blows at every span[00:01:12]
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya[00:01:16]
The captain stood on the quarter deck[00:01:27]
The ice was in his eye[00:01:30]
Overhaul overhaul let your gibsheets fall[00:01:33]
And you'll put your boats to sea brave boys[00:01:37]
And you'll put your boats to sea[00:01:40]
The harpoon struck and the line played out[00:01:44]
With a single flourish of his tail[00:01:47]
He capsized the boat and we lost five men[00:01:50]
And we did not catch the whale brave boys[00:01:53]
And we did not catch the whale[00:01:57]
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya[00:02:23]
The losing of those five jolly men[00:02:35]
It grieved the captain sore[00:02:38]
But the losing of that fine whalefish[00:02:41]
Now it grieved him ten times more brave boys[00:02:44]
Now it grieved him ten times more[00:02:48]
Greenland is a barren land[00:02:52]
A land that bares no green[00:02:55]
Where there's ice and snow oh and whalefishes blow[00:02:58]
And the daylight's seldom seen brave boys[00:03:01]
And the daylight's seldom seen[00:03:05]
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya[00:03:08]
Ha ha ha ha ha haa[00:03:20]
