"Men (offstage)
Blow high, blow low!
A-whalin’ we will go!
We’ll go a-whalin’, a-sailin’ away.
Away we’ll go,
Blow me high and low!
(Billy and Jigger Craigin enter, followed by
Friends from Jigger’s whaler.)
For many and many a long, long day!
For many and many a long, long day!
Blow high, blow low! etc.
Jigger Craigin (spoken)
Hey, Billy!
(Billy turns.)
Where are you goin’?
(Jigger takes his arm and brings him
downstage.)
Stick with me.
After we get rid of my shipmates, I wanna
talk to you. Got an idea, for you and me to make money.
Billy (spoken)
How much?
Jigger (spoken)
More’n you ever saw in yer life.
A Man (spoken)
Hey, Jigger, come back here!
(Billy and Jigger go back to the boys.)
Jigger (sung)
The people who live on land
Are hard to understand –
When you’re lookin’ for fun, they clap you into jail!
So I’m shippin’ off to sea,
Where life is gay and free,
And a feller can flip
A hook in the hip
Of a whale.
All
Blow high, blow low!
A-whalin’ we will go!
We’ll go a-whalin’, a-sailin’ away.
Away we’ll go,
Blow me high and low!
For many and many a long, long day!
For many and many a long, long day!
Billy
It’s wonderful just to feel
Your hands upon the wheel
And to listen to wind a-whistlin’ in a sail!
Or to climb aloft and be
The very first to see
A chrysanthemum spout
Come out o’ the snout
Of a whale!
All
Blow high, blow low!
A-whalin’ we will go!
We’ll go a-whalin’, a-sailin’ away,
Away we’ll go,
Blow me high and low!
For many and many a long, long day!
For many and many a long, long day!
Jigger
A-rockin’ upon the sea,
Your boat will seem to be
Like a dear little baby in her bassinet,
For she hasn’t learned to walk,
And she hasn’t learned to talk,
And her little behind
Is kind of inclined to be wet!
All
Blow high, blow low!
A-whalin’ we will go!
We’ll go a-whalin’, a-sailin’ away,
Away we’ll go,
Blow me high and low!
For many and many a long, long day!
For many and many a long, long day!"
