The Wellerman - Alexander Nakarada

Composed by:Alexander Nakarada

There was a ship that put to sea

And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea

The winds blew hard her bow dipped down

Oh blow me bully boys blow

Soon may the Wellerman come

To bring us sugar and tea and rum

One day when the tonguing is done

We'll take our leave and go

She had not been two weeks from shore

When down on her a right whale bore

The captain called all hands and swore

He'd take that whale in tow

Soon may the Wellerman come

To bring us sugar and tea and rum

One day when the tonguing is done

We'll take our leave and go

Before the boat had hit the water

The whale's tail came up and caught her

All hands to the side harpooned and fought her

When she dived down below

Soon may the Wellerman come

To bring us sugar and tea and rum

One day when the tonguing is done

We'll take our leave and go

Soon may the Wellerman come

To bring us sugar and tea and rum

One day when the tonguing is done

We'll take our leave and go

No line was cut no whale was freed

An' the captain's mind was not on greed

But he belonged to the Whaleman's creed

She took that ship in tow

Soon may the Wellerman come

To bring us sugar and tea and rum

One day when the tonguing is done

We'll take our leave and go

Soon may the Wellerman come

To bring us sugar and tea and rum

One day when the tonguing is done

We'll take our leave and go
