Kingston Trio - Blow Ye Winds lyrics

'Tis advertised in Boston New York and Buffalo A hundred hearty sailors A whalin' for to go Blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow They tell you of the clipper ships A-runnin' in and out They say you'll take five hundred whales Before you're six months out Blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow The skipper's on the after deck A-squintin' at the sails When up above the lookout spots A mighty school of whales Blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow Then lower down the boats, my boys And after him we'll travel But if you get too near his tail He'll kick you to the devil Blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow And now that he is ours, my boys We'll bring him alongside Then over with our blubber hooks And rob him of his hide Blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow When we get home, our ship made fast And we get through our sailin' A brimmin' gla** around We'll pa** and hang this blubber whalin' Blow, ye winds, o' mornin', blow, ye winds, hi ho Haul away your runnin' gear and blow, boys, blow
