歌词
There once was a ship that put to sea
从前有一艘船扬帆出海
The name of that ship was the Billy of Tea
她叫做茶壶号
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
海风呼啸,她疾速猛冲
Blow, me bully boys, blow (Huh)
吹吧 混蛋 吹呀
Soon may the Wellerman come
水手们不久就会到来
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
One day, when the tonguin' is done
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
We'll take our leave and go
我们扬帆远航
她离靠岸不到两个星期
She had not been two weeks from shore
在她身下,一头露脊鲸潜来
When down on her, a right whale bore
船长召集全体船员并宣誓:
The captain called all hands and swore
他会把那条鲸鱼拖住
He'd take that whale in tow (Huah)
水手们不久就会到来
Soon may the Wellerman come
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
One day, when the tonguin' is done
我们扬帆远航
We'll take our leave and go
在船落水之前
Before the boat had hit the water
鲸鱼的尾巴跃出水面击中了她
The whale's tail came up and caught her
全体船员冲到船边,扬起鱼叉保卫她
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
这时她沉入了水中
When she dived down below (Huah)
水手们不久就会到来
Soon may the Wellerman come
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
One day, when the tonguin' is done
我们扬帆远航
We'll take our leave and go
水手们不久就会到来
Soon may the Wellerman come
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
One day, when the tonguin' is done
我们扬帆远航
We'll take our leave and go
鱼线没有隔断,鲸鱼没有逃脱
船长的想法并不贪婪
No line was cut, no whale was freed
但是他遵从着捕鲸人的信条
The Captain's mind was not on greed
她把船拖走了
But he belonged to the whaleman's creed
水手们不久就会到来
She took that ship in tow
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
Soon may the Wellerman come
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
我们扬帆远航
One day, when the tonguin' is done
过了四十天,甚至更久
We'll take our leave and go
绳子松了又紧
所有小船都冲散了,只剩下了四艘
For forty days, or even more
但是那条鲸鱼还在游
The line went slack, then tight once more
据我所知,战斗仍在继续
All boats were lost, there were only four
绳子没有断开,鲸鱼也没有死
But still that whale did go
水手们整齐地喊起号子
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
给船长和所有船员加油打气
The line's not cut and the whale's not gone
The Wellerman makes his a regular call
水手们不久就会到来
To encourage the Captain, crew, and all
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
Huah
我们扬帆远航
Soon may the Wellerman come
水手们不久就会到来
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
One day, when the tonguin' is done
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
We'll take our leave and go
我们扬帆远航
Soon may the Wellerman come
水手们不久就会到来
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
给我们带来糖 茶 还有朗姆酒
One day, when the tonguin' is done
总有一天,当捕鲸结束的时候
We'll take our leave and go
我们扬帆远航
Soon may the Wellerman come
我们扬帆远航
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
我们扬帆
One day, when the tonguin' is done
远航
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and go
We'll take our leave and
Go
