| 'Tis advertised in Boston, New York, and Buffalo a hundred hearty sailors,
|
| a whalin' for to go."
|
| Blow, ye winds, O' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho. |
| Haul away your runnin' gear
|
| and blow, boys, blow
|
| They tell you of the clipper ships a-runnin' in and out. |
| They say you’ll take
|
| five hundred whales before you’re six months out
|
| Blow, ye winds, O' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho. |
| Haul away your runnin' gear
|
| and blow, boys, blow
|
| The skipper’s on the after deck a-squintin' at the sails. |
| When up above the
|
| lookout spots a mighty school of whales
|
| Blow, ye winds, O' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho. |
| Haul away your runnin' gear
|
| and blow, boys, blow
|
| Then lower down the boats, my boys, and after him we’ll travel but if you get
|
| too near his tail, he’ll kick you to the devil
|
| Blow, ye winds, O' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho. |
| Haul away your runnin' gear
|
| and blow, boys, blow
|
| And now that he is ours, my boys, we’ll bring him alongside. |
| Then over with our
|
| blubber hooks and rob him of his hide
|
| Blow, ye winds, O' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho. |
| Haul away your runnin' gear
|
| and blow, boys, blow
|
| When we get home, our ship made fast, and we get through our sailin'.
|
| A brimmin' glass around we’ll pass and hang this blubber whalin'
|
| Blow, ye winds, O' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho. |
| Haul away your runnin' gear
|
| and blow, boys, blow |
