| | 9 | There once was a ship that put to sea[[BR]] |
| | 10 | The name of the ship was the Billy o' Tea[[BR]] |
| | 11 | The winds blew up, her bow dipped down[[BR]] |
| | 12 | O blow, my bully boys, blow[[BR]] |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | Soon may the Wellerman come[[BR]] |
| | 15 | To bring us sugar and tea and rum[[BR]] |
| | 16 | One day, when the tonguin’ is done[[BR]] |
| | 17 | We’ll take our leave and go[[BR]] |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | She had not been two weeks from shore[[BR]] |
| | 20 | When down on her a right whale bore[[BR]] |
| | 21 | The captain called all hands and swore[[BR]] |
| | 22 | He’d take that whale in tow[[BR]] |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | Before the boat had hit the water[[BR]] |
| | 25 | The whale’s tail came up and caught her[[BR]] |
| | 26 | All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her[[BR]] |
| | 27 | When she dived down below[[BR]] |
| | 28 | |
| | 29 | No line was cut, no whale was freed[[BR]] |
| | 30 | The Captain’s mind was not of greed[[BR]] |
| | 31 | But he belonged to the whaleman’s creed[[BR]] |
| | 32 | She took the ship in tow[[BR]] |
| | 33 | |
| | 34 | For forty days, or even more[[BR]] |
| | 35 | The line went slack, then tight once more[[BR]] |
| | 36 | All boats were lost, there were only four[[BR]] |
| | 37 | But still that whale did go[[BR]] |
| | 38 | |
| | 39 | As far as I’ve heard, the fight’s still on[[BR]] |
| | 40 | The line’s not cut and the whale’s not gone[[BR]] |
| | 41 | The Wellerman makes his regular call[[BR]] |
| | 42 | To encourage the Captain, crew, and all[[BR]] |

| | 46 | Наш корабль отплыл вчера, [[BR]] |
| | 47 | И звать его "Чай из топора".[[BR]] |
| | 48 | Ветер дует, волны бьют,[[BR]] |
| | 49 | И дождь как из ведра.[[BR]] |
| | 50 | |
| | 51 | Эй, гребец, маши веслом, [[BR]] |
| | 52 | Вези нам сахар, и чай, и ром! [[BR]] |
| | 53 | Завтра мы кита забьем[[BR]] |
| | 54 | И вернемся все домой.[[BR]] |
| | 55 | |
| | 56 | Две недели мы плывем,[[BR]] |
| | 57 | И тут кита заметил Том.[[BR]] |
| | 58 | Капитан орет: "Вперёд! [[BR]] |
| | 59 | Гори оно огнем!"[[BR]] |
| | 60 | |
| | 61 | Как подлый тот кит хвостом махнул --[[BR]] |
| | 62 | Корабль чуть не утонул.[[BR]] |
| | 63 | С гарпуном под плавником[[BR]] |
| | 64 | Кит на дно нырнул.[[BR]] |
| | 65 | |
| | 66 | Капитан у нас лихой --[[BR]] |
| | 67 | Настоящий китобой! [[BR]] |
| | 68 | Трос рубить не стал, и кит[[BR]] |
| | 69 | Унес нас за собой.[[BR]] |
| | 70 | |
| | 71 | Сорок суток напролет[[BR]] |
| | 72 | Несёт нас этот сукин кот! [[BR]] |
| | 73 | Все матросы стоя спят, [[BR]] |
| | 74 | А он все не уснет.[[BR]] |
| | 75 | |
| | 76 | Год за годом, день за днем[[BR]] |
| | 77 | Все ходит судно за китом[[BR]] |
| | 78 | А гребцы в который раз[[BR]] |
| | 79 | Везут нам чай и ром! [[BR]] |
