Nantucket Sleighride |
| Goodbye, little Robin-Marie |
| Don’t try following me Don’t cry, little Robin-Marie |
| 'Cause you know I’m coming home soon |
| My ships' leaving on a three-year tour |
| The next tide will take us from shore |
| Windlaced, gather in sail and spray |
| On a search for the mighty sperm whale |
| Fly your willow branches |
| Wrap your body round my soul |
| Lay down your reeds and drums on my soft sheets |
| There are years behind us reaching |
| To the place where hearts are beating |
| And I know you’re the last true love I’ll ever meet |
| And I know you’re the last true love I’ll ever meet |
| Starbuck’s sharpening his harpoon |
| The black man is playing his tune |
| An old salt’s sleeping his watch away |
| He’ll be drunk again before noon |
| Three years sailing on bended knee |
| We found no whales in the sea |
| Don’t cry, little Robin-Marie |
| 'Cause we’ll be in sight of land soon |
| Fly your willow branches |
| Wrap your body round my soul |
| Lay down your reeds and drums on my soft sheets |
| There are years behind us reaching |
| To the place where hearts are beating |
| And I know you’re the last true love I’ll ever meet |
| And I know you’re the last true love I’ll ever meet |
