Soon May the Wellerman Come
Hey guys, where's that Wellerman at?
There was a ship that was put to sea
The name of the ship was the Billy Of Tea
The wind blew up, the bow dipped down
Oh blow, my billy boys, blow
Soon may the Wellerman come
And bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
She'd 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
And 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 low
Soon may the Wellerman come
And 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
The captain's mind not full of greed
But he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow
Soon may the Wellerman come
And bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
For 40 days or even more
The line went slack then tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
But still the whale did go
Soon may the Wellerman come
And bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
As far as I know, the fight's still on
The line not cut, and the whale not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To the captain, crew and all
Soon may the Wellerman come
And 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
And 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
And 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
And 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
And 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
And 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
And bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
There was a ship that was put to sea
The name of the ship was the Billy Of Tea
The wind blew up, the bow dipped down
Oh blow, my billy boys, blow

And bring us sugar and tea and rum

Soon may the Wellerman come
And bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing is done
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
