Back Of The Moon

Greenland

Back Of The Moon


Greenland is a hell of a place
It's a place that's never green
Where there's ice and snow, and the whale fishes blow
And the daylight's seldom seen, brave boys
The daylight's seldom seen

In eighteen hundred and sixty-four
On June the thirteen day
Our gallant ship her anchor weighed
And for Greenland sailed away, brave boys
For Greenland sailed away

Well, our captain, he stood on the quarter deck
With a spy glass in his hand
There's a whale, there's a whale, there's a bloody great whale
And she blows on every span, brave boys
She blows on every span

We hit that whale and the line paid out
And she made a flunder with her tail
And the boat capsized and ten men were drowned
And we ne'er did catch that whale, brave boys
We ne'er did catch that whale

Well, the losing of those ten brave men
It grieves my heart full sore
But the losing of that bloody great whale
It grieves me ten times more, brave boys
It grieves me ten times more

Greenland is a hell of a place
It's a place that's never green
Where there's ice and snow, and the whale fishes blow
And the daylight's seldom seen, brave boys
The daylight's seldom seen
