| [00:00.000] |
When the whale get strike and the line runs out |
| [00:09.263] |
And the whale makes a flunder with its tail |
| [00:16.808] |
And the boat capsized and I lost my darlin' man |
| [00:24.734] |
No more, no more Greenland for you, brave boys |
| [00:35.230] |
No more, no more Greenland for you |
| [00:45.116] |
Twas in eighteen hundred and fifty three, |
| [00:52.275] |
On June the thirteenth day |
| [00:57.307] |
That our gallant ship her anchor weighed |
| [01:02.676] |
And for Greenland sailed away, brave boys, |
| [01:07.943] |
And for Greenland sailed away. |
| [01:13.394] |
The lookout on the crosstree stood |
| [01:18.345] |
With a spyglass in his hand |
| [01:23.109] |
There's a whale, there's a whale, there's a whalefish, he cried |
| [01:28.473] |
And she blows at every span, brave boys |
| [01:33.770] |
She blows at every span! |
| [01:38.685] |
Well we struck that whale and the line played out |
| [02:03.785] |
But she gave a flunder with her tail |
| [02:08.330] |
And the boat capsized and four men were drowned |
| [02:13.767] |
And we never caught that whale, |
| [02:18.103] |
We never caught that whale. |
| [02:23.889] |
Oh, to lose that whale, my captain cried, |
| [02:28.755] |
It grieves my heart full sore |
| [02:33.532] |
But to lose four of my gallant men |
| [02:38.648] |
It grieves me ten times more, brave boys, |
| [02:43.997] |
It grieves me ten times more! |
| [02:48.448] |
Oh, Greenland is a dreadful place |
| [02:53.777] |
It's a land that's never green |
| [02:58.331] |
Where there's ice and snow and the whalefishes blow |
| [03:03.993] |
And daylight's seldom seen, brave boys |
| [03:08.966] |
And daylight's seldom seen |
| [03:13.355] |
When the whale gets strike, and the line runs out |
| [03:23.224] |
And the whale makes a flunder with its tail |
| [03:31.851] |
And the boat capsized and I lost my darlin' man |
| [03:40.281] |
No more, no more Greenland for you, brave boys. |
| [03:51.690] |
No more, no more Greenland for you. |
