Lyrics

[00:44.342] Oh my Donald he works on the sea
[00:52.405] On the waves that blow wild and free
[01:00.684] He splices the ropes and he sets the sails
[01:11.625] While southward he rolls to the home of the whale
[01:31.097] And he ne'er thinks o' me far behind
[01:38.894] Nor the torments that rage in my mind
[01:45.835] He's mine for only part of the year
[01:56.409] And I'm left all alone with only my tears
[02:16.611] Ye ladies that smell of wild rose
[02:25.481] Think ye for your perfume to where a man goes
[02:34.114] Think ye o' the wives and the babies that yearn
[02:44.587] For a man ne'er returning from hunting the sperm
[03:05.690] My Donald he works on the sea
[03:15.205] On the waves that blow wild and free
[03:22.523] He's mine for only part of the year
[03:47.138] And I'm left all alone with only my tears
