[Verse 1]
 
       Am
There once was a ship that put to sea
        Dm                        Am
And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
                           Dm
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
 Gm                  Am
Blow, me bully boys, blow (Huh!)
 
 
[Chorus]
F              C
Soon may the Wellerman come
     Dm                  Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 F                    C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
   Dm                    Am
We'll take our leave and go
 
 
[Verse 2]
  Am
She had not been two weeks from shore
        Dm            Am
When down on her a right whale bore
                         Dm
The captain called all hands and swore
      Gm                 Am
He'd take that whale in tow (Hah!)
 
 
[Chorus]
 F             C
Soon may the Wellerman come
    Dm                   Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                  C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
  Dm                     Am
We'll take our leave and go
 
 
[Verse 3]
  Am
Before the boat had hit the water
         Dm                   Am
The whale's tail came up and caught her
 
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
       Gm              Am
When she dived down below (Huh!)
 
 
[Chorus]
F              C
Soon may the Wellerman come
 Dm                   Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                 C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
Dm                Am
We'll take our leave and go
 
 
[Verse 4]
Am
No line was cut, no whale was freed;
       Dm               Am
The Captain's mind was not on greed
                          Dm
But he belonged to the whaleman's creed;
      Gm                Am
She took that ship in tow (Huh!)
 
 
[Chorus]
F             C
Soon may the Wellerman come
      Dm                Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                   C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
  Dm                      Am
We'll take our leave and go
 
 
[Verse 5]
 Am
For forty days, or even more
               Dm                    Am
The line went slack, then tight once more
 
All boats were lost, there were only four
       Gm                 Am
But still that whale did go
 
 
[Chorus]
F             C
Soon may the Wellerman come
 Dm                    Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 F                 C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
  Dm                      Am
We'll take our leave and go
 
 
[Verse 6]
 Am
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on;
      Dm                     F(or Am)
The line's not cut and the whale's not gone
     Am                     Dm
The Wellerman makes his a regular call
       Gm                   Am
To encourage the Captain, crew, and all
 
 
[Chorus]
 F            C
Soon may the Wellerman come
     Dm                Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                 C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
Dm                       Am
We'll take our leave and go
F              C
Soon may the Wellerman come
     Dm                 Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
 F                   C
One day, when the tonguin' is done
        Dm                 Am
We'll take our leave and go
