The Beggars - The Whale Text

Songtext zu The Whale


Die, die, die,
Die, di-di-die, die...

They sailed from port one morning, when the weather it was fair
A gentle breeze it pushed them and no one gave a care
They laughed and danced and sang that night, and opened up a keg
They're off to catch the monster whale, that took the Captain's leg

Die, die, die,
Die, di-di-die, die...

The Captain said: "A piece of gold for him, who sees me whale
So bend your backs and row, me lads, I know, that we won't fail!"


"Oh, bend your backs and row, me lads, and take to me whale!
Tonight we'll sing and dance and tomorrow night we'll sail!
We'll sail into the harbour, no prouder man there'll be!
We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea!"

Die, die, die,
Die, di-di-die, die...

They spied the whale one morning, when the weather it was fair
The crew were white as ghosts, but the Captain didn't care
"I'll take this whale myself!" he cried, "The weak can stay behind
The strong can share my glory and tonight they'll share my wine!"

Die, die, die,
Die, di-di-die, die...

The whale it came up closer, it was bigger, than the sky
They lowered down the longboats and they heard the Captain cry:

"Oh, bend your backs and row, me lads, and take to me whale!
Tonight we'll sing and dance and tomorrow night we'll sail!
We'll sail into the harbour, no prouder man there'll be!
We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea!"

Die, die, die,
Die, di-di-die, die...

The whale it came so close, that it almost tipped the boat
The Captain raised his harpoon and he rammed it down it's throat
The whale it gave a mournful cry and lifted it's great tail...
And brought it down a smashing on their small boat, like a gale

Now 100 years have passed, since the Captain and his men
Went down to spend eternity in Davy Jones's den
The whale it goes on living, but inside it wears a scar...
And if You're ever near that place, a voice calls from afar...

"Oh, bend your backs and row, me lads, and take to me whale!
Tonight we'll sing and dance and tomorrow night we'll sail!
We'll sail into the harbour, no prouder man there'll be!
We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea!"

"Oh, bend your backs and row, me lads, and take to me whale!
Tonight we'll sing and dance and tomorrow night we'll sail!
We'll sail into the harbour, no prouder man there'll be!
We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea!"

"We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea!
We'll show them all we captured the monster from the sea!"

Die, die, die,
Die, di-di-die, die...
