Greenland Whale Fisheries | The Longest Johns

On our recent stop through Newcastle, we had the chance to visit our producer, and very good friend, Paul Worthington’s new studio, called Salt (@saltrecording). We decided it’d be great fun to sing this little ditty from our most recent album, Voyage! ENJOY!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics: In eighteen hundred and fifty-six On June the thirteenth day We hoisted our colours to the top of the mast And for Greenland bore away (Brave boys, for Greenland bore away) Well, the lookout on the crosstrees stood A spy-glass in his hand "There's a whale, there's a whale, there's a whalefish!" he cried, "And she blows at every span!" (Brave boys, and she blows at every span!) {Chorus} For Greenland is a hell of a place It's a place that's never green Where there's ice and there's snow and the whalefishes blow And the daylight's seldom seen, brave boys The daylight's seldom seen Our Captain stood on the quarterdeck A gallant man was he "Overhaul, overhaul, let your davit tackles fall, And we launch our boats to sea." (Brave boys, we launch our boats to sea) Well, the harpoon struck and the line paid out But she gave a flourish with her tail And the boat capsized and we lost seven men And we ne'er did catch that whale (Brave boys, and we ne'er did catch that whale) {Chorus} Now the losing of those seven brave men It grieved the captain sore But the losing of that bloody great whale It grieved him ten times more (Brave boys, it grieved him ten times more) {Chorus 2x} -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Longest Johns https://bio.site/TheLongestJohns   / thelongestjohns     / thelongestjohns     / thelongestjohns     / longestjohnsgaming     / discord   http://www.thelongestjohns.com https://open.spotify.com/artist/5k979...
