Lyrics : Greenland Fishery
No more, no more can we stay on shore
Gonna work for the company
Where there's ice and there's snow
And the whale-fishes play
And the Greenland Fishery, boys
The Greenland Fishery
The lookout climbed the top mast high
With a spyglass in his hand
"There's a whale, there's a whale
There's a whale-fish," he cried
"And she blows at every span, boys
She blows at every span"
And the captain stood on the quarterdеck
And the ice was in his eyе
"Overhaul, overhaul, let your davit tackle fall
Let your harpoon fly, boys
Let your harpoon fly"
The harpoon struck and the line played out
But the fish gave a flash with the tail
And the boats capsized
And we lost a dozen men
And a hundred barrels of oil, boys
A hundred barrels of oil
Gonna work for the company
Where there's ice and there's snow
And the whale-fishes play
And the Greenland Fishery, boys
The Greenland Fishery
The lookout climbed the top mast high
With a spyglass in his hand
"There's a whale, there's a whale
There's a whale-fish," he cried
"And she blows at every span, boys
She blows at every span"
And the captain stood on the quarterdеck
And the ice was in his eyе
"Overhaul, overhaul, let your davit tackle fall
Let your harpoon fly, boys
Let your harpoon fly"
The harpoon struck and the line played out
But the fish gave a flash with the tail
And the boats capsized
And we lost a dozen men
And a hundred barrels of oil, boys
A hundred barrels of oil
