on The Balena

[Verse 1]
A noble fleet of whalers
went sailing from Dundee,
While manned by British sailors
to work out on the sea.
From the western ocean passage
none with them can compare,
To the bravest ship to make
the trip is Balena, I declare!

[Chorus]
Oh, the wind is on a quarter
engine working free;
There's not another whaler
that sails out of Dundee
Can beat the old Balena
she needs no trial run
And she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!

[Verse 2]
It happened on a Tuesday
3 days out of Dundee,
When a gale took out a quarter-boat
and a couple of men, you see (couple of men, you see)
It battered out a bullwark,
her stampchains and her rails
And left the old Balena, boys,
a-floating in the gales.

[Chorus]
Oh, the wind is on a quarter,
engine working free;
There's not another whaler
that sails out of Dundee
Can beat the old Balena
she needs no trial run
And she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!

[Verse 3]
Old Jack-man cut his canvas
and nearly raised his steam,
Captain Jack with Aaron-boy
came plowing through the stream,
The noble Terra Nova, her quarters nearly burst
and still there at the whaling grounds,
Balena got there first!

[Chorus]
Oh, the wind is on a quarter,
engine working free;
There's not another whaler
that sails out of Dundee
Can beat the old Balena
she needs no trial run
And she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!

(musical interlude)

[Chorus]
Oh, the wind is on a quarter,
engine working free;
There's not another whaler
that sails out of Dundee
Can beat the old Balena
she needs no trial run
And she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!

[Verse 4]
Well, now our season's over
our ship's half full of oil,
we point the jib-boom t'wards our home
and to our native soil.
And then when we have landed
and the rum is flowing cheap,
We'll drink success to the skipper's health
for getting us o'er the deep!

[Chorus]
Oh, the wind is on a quarter,
engine working free;
There's not another whaler
that sails out of Dundee
Can beat the old Balena
she needs no trial run
And she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!

[Chorus]
Oh, the wind is on a quarter,
engine working free;
There's not another whaler
that sails out of Dundee
Can beat the old Balena
she needs no trial run
And she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!

[Outro]
and she challenged all,
both great and small,
from Dundee to St. John!
