In 1846, on March the 18th day,
We hoisted our colors
to the top of our mass,
And for Greenland sailed away,
brave boys,
And for Greenland sailed away.

The lookout on the main mass stood,
A spyglass in his hand,
There's a whale,
there's a whale,
There's a whale, fishy cried,

And he blows at every span, Brie Boys,

The captain on the quarter deck,
The ice was in his eye,
Over haul, over haul,
Let your jib sheets fall,
And go put your boats to sea,
G
And go put your boats to sea.
D
The boat was lowered
G
and the men aboard
The whale was full in view
Resolved,
resolved was each fisherman bold
Am

For to steer where the whalefish flew,
brave boys
C
G
For to steer where the whalefish flew
The harpoon struck and the

With a single flourish of his tail
He capsized our boat
and we lost five men
And we did not catch that whale,
brave boys
C

And we did not catch that whale

The losin' of those five brave men
It grieved our captain sore
But the losin' of that fine whale fish

Oh, it grieved him ten times more,
brave boys

Up anchor now the captain he cried
For the winter stars do appear
And it's time we left this cold country

And for homeland we did steer,

And for homeland we did steer
