the whaleman's lament - a. l. lloyd lyrics

Loading...

’twas on the briny ocean on a whale ship i did go
i often thought of distand friends, i often thought of home

through dreary storms and tempests and through some heavy gales
around cape h*rn we sped our way, to look out for sperm whales

they’ll rob you and they’ll use you; its worse than any slaves
before you go a*whaling, boys, you’d best be in your graves

it’s: “do it now or, d*mn your eyes, i’ll flog you till you’re blue.”
oh boys, i couldn’t tell it all, but every word is true

the wind do blow and the great seas grow and we strain upon the oars
and your heart would bleed at the sperm whale’s speed and it’s: “pull, you sons of wh0res!”

the weary chase is over and the stars begin to glow
and it’s: “light the flares, you lubberly lot, there’s tryin’ out to do!”

i swore i’d not go back again once we was homeward bound
for the pleasures are but few, my boys, on them bitter whaling grounds
