Roger McGuinn - Catch The Greenland Whale

Kishore Kumar Hits — Roger McGuinn - Catch The Greenland Whale lyrics

Artist: Roger McGuinn

album: CCD

On the twenty-third of March, my boys,
We hoisted our topsail,
Crying, 'Heav'n above protect us
With a sweet and a pleasant gale.'
We never was down-hearted
Nor let our courage fail
But bore away up to Greenland
For to catch the Greenland whale,
For to catch the Greenland whale.
And when we came to Greenland
Where the bitter winds did blow,
We tacked about all in the north
Among the frost and snow.
Our finger-tops were frozen off,
And likewise our toe-nails,
As we crawled on the deck, my boys,
Looking out for the Greenland whale
Looking out for the Greenland whale.
And when we came to Davis Strait
Where the mountains flowed with snow,
We tacked about all in the north
Till we heard the whalefish blow.
And when we catch that whale, brave boys,
Homeward we will steer.
We'll make them valleys ring, my boys,
A-drinking of strong beer.
We'll make them lofty alehouses
In London town to roar;
And when our money is all gone,
To Greenland go for more,
To Greenland go for more.
