| [00:07.84] |
Oh, our schooner and our sloop in Ferryland they do lie |
| [00:14.31] |
She's already rigged to be bound for the ice |
| [00:20.04] |
All you lads of the Southern we will have you to beware |
| [00:30.12] |
She is going to the ice in the Spring of the year |
| [00:34.71] |
Laddie whack fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [00:38.66] |
|
| [00:44.95] |
Our course be east-north-east for two days and two nights; |
| [00:49.23] |
Our captain he cried out 'Boys, look ahead for the ice!' |
| [00:52.93] |
And we hove her about standing in for the land |
| [00:57.64] |
And 'twas in a few hours we were firm in the jam |
| [01:01.31] |
Laddie whack fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [01:05.27] |
|
| [01:07.99] |
Oh our captain he cried out, 'Come on, boys, and bear a hand!' |
| [01:11.91] |
Our cook he gets the breakfast and each man takes a dram |
| [01:15.47] |
With their hats in their hands it was earlye for to go |
| [01:20.19] |
Every man showed his action 'thout the missing of a blow |
| [01:24.11] |
Laddie whack fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [01:28.03] |
|
| [01:30.93] |
Some were killing some were scalping, some were hauling on board |
| [01:34.66] |
And some more they were firing and a-missing of their loads |
| [01:38.47] |
In the dusk of the evening all hands in from the cold |
| [01:43.16] |
And we counted nine hundred fine scalps in the hold |
| [01:51.40] |
|
| [02:17.67] |
We are now off Cape Spear and in sight of Cape Broyle: |
| [02:21.32] |
We will dance, sing, carouse, my boys, in just a little while |
| [02:25.12] |
We will soon enjoy the charms of our sweethearts and friends |
| [02:28.82] |
For it will not be long before we're down to the bend |
| [02:32.64] |
Laddie whack fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [02:36.66] |
|
| [02:39.28] |
Oh, our schooner and our sloop in Ferryland they do lie |
| [02:43.30] |
She's already rigged to be bound for the ice |
| [02:46.89] |
All you lads of the Southern we will have you to beware |
| [02:58.72] |
She is going to the ice in the Spring of the year |
| [03:03.66] |
Laddie whack fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [03:07.37] |
Fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [03:09.98] |
Fall the laddie, laddie whack fall the day |
| [03:13.14] |
