[Chorus] Soon may the Wellerman come To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguin' is done We'll take our leave and go [Verse 2] She had not been two weeks from shore When down on her, a right whale bore The captain called all hands and swore He'd take that whale in tow (Hah!) [Chorus] Soon may the Wellerman come To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguin' is done We'll take our leave and go [Verse 3] Before the boat had hit the water The whale's tail came up and caught her All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her When she dived down below (Huh!) [Chorus] Soon may the Wellerman come To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguin' is done We'll take our leave and go [Verse 4] No line was cut, no whale was freed The Captain's mind was not on greed But he belonged to the whaleman's creed She took that ship in tow (Huh!) [Chorus] Soon may the Wellerman come To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguin' is done We'll take our leave and go [Verse 5] For forty days, or even more The line went slack, then tight once more All boats were lost, there were only four But still that whale did go [Chorus] Soon may the Wellerman come To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguin' is done We'll take our leave and go [Verse 6] As far as I've heard, the fight's still on The line's not cut and the whale's not gone The Wellerman makes his a regular call To encourage the Captain,
