There once was a ship that pit to sea, The name of the [Eb] ship was a bully of tea,
The wind blew up her bird up [Gb] down below, My [Eb] bully boys blow.
[B] Soon [Gb] may the women [Db] come, To bring us [Bb] sugar and tea and [B] rum,
One [Gb] day when the tongue is [Fm] done, We'll take our [Ebm] leave and go.
[Ab] [Ebm] She had not been two weeks from shore, When down on [Ebm] her a right whale bore,
The captain called all hands and swore, He'd take that [Eb] whale it chose.
[B] Soon [Gb] may the women [Db] come, To bring us [Ebm] sugar and tea and [B] rum,
One [Gb] day when the tongue is [Db] done, We'll take our [Ebm] leave and go.
Before the boat had hit the [Abm] water, The whale's [Ebm] tail came up and caught her lance,
The sight harpooned and fought, And she died down below.
[B] Soon [Gb] may the women [Db] come, To bring us [Ebm] sugar and tea and [B] rum,
One [Gb] day when the tongue is [Db] done, We'll take our [Ebm] leave and go.
[B] Soon [Gb] may the women [Db] come, To bring us [Ebm] sugar and tea and [B] rum,
One [Gb] day when the tongue is done, [Db] We'll take our [Ebm] leave and go.
[Ab] [Ebm] No lane was cut, no whale was [Abm] freed, The captain's [Ebm] mane was not of greed,
For he belonged to the women's creed, She'd tip that ship in tow.
[B] Soon [Gb] may the women [Db] come, To bring us sugar [Ebm] and tea and rum,
[B] One [Gb] day when the tongue is done, [Db] We'll take our [Ebm] leave and go.

[Ebm] [B] [Gb] [Db]
[Ebm] [Eb] For forty days or even more, The line went slack and tight once more,
All boats were lost, there were only four, But still that whale [Eb] did go.
As far as I'm heard, the fight's still on, The lane's not cut and the whale's not gone,
The wellerman makes his regular call, [Ebm] To encourage the captain through and through.
[B] Soon may [Gb] the wellerman come, [Ab] To bring us sugar [Ebm] and tea and rum,
[B] One day [Gb] when the tongue is done, We'll take our leave [Eb] and go.
