---------------...........................
 Sun breaks over the sprits'l yard,
 Jib sheet's haulin'  to lee-ward hard.
 Crosstree's hummin' a mornin' hymn,
 I'm the cabin  boy; call  me Jim.  (His  name's Jim).
 Fare away, fare away, under main topsail,
 To the fur-be-low  of the wily wha...le.
 Captain's stalking the quarter-deck,
 Tells the tail  of his first  ship-wreck.
 Castaway with a case  of rum,
 Hoped that rescue  would never come.
 (Never come).
 Fare away, fare away, under main topsail,
 To the fur-be-low  of the wily whale.
 To the fur-be-low  of the wi-ly,  wi-ly...
 (Penny Whistle)
 (Faster):
 First mate Adam's a hardened man,
 Says the captain's  a charla-tan.
 Don't know tackle from futtock plates,
 He'll sail  us into  the Pear...ly Gates.
 Fare away, fare away, under main topsail,
 To the fur-be-low  of the wily wha...le.
 I been sailin' these seven seas,
 Since I's  nigh high  to a mermaid's knees.
 Come next April I'm sixty-three,
 I can't  ad-vance!  (I like  short pants!)
 Safe in the cabin  on the o-pen sea.
 Fare away, fare away, under main topsail,
 To the fur-be-low  of the wily whale.
 To the fur-be-low  of the wily,  wi-ly wha...le.
