Blow high, blow low
A whailin' we will go
We'll go a whalin' a sailin' away
Away we'll go
Blow me high an' low
For many an' many a long long day
For many an' many a long long day
The people who live on land
Are hard to understand
When you're lookin' for fun
They clap you into jail!
So I'm shippin' off to sea
Where life is gay an' free
An' a fella can flip a hook
In the hip of a whale
Blow high, blow low
A whailin' we will go
We'll go a whalin' a sailin' away
Away we'll go
Blow me high an' low
For many an' many a long long day
For many an' many a long long day
It's wonderful just to feel
Your hands upon the wheel
An' listen to wind a-whistlin' in the sail
But I'm climbin' off to be
The very first to see
A crysanthymum spout
Come out o' the snout of a whale
Blow high, blow low
A whalin' we will go
We'll go a whalin' a sailin' away
Away we'll go
Blow me high an' low
For many an' many a long long day
For many an' many a long long day!
A-rockin' upon the sea, your boat'll seem to be
Like a dear little baby in her bassinet
For she hasn't leaned to walk
An' she hasn't learned to talk
An' her little behind is kind of inclined to be wet
Blow high, blow low
A whalin' we will go
We'll go a whalin' sailin' away
Away we'll go
Blow me high an' low
For many an' many a long long day
For many an' many a long long day!
