The Eddystone Light - The Brothers Four-歌词

The Eddystone Light - The Brothers Four

Written by:The Brothers Four

Yo ho here's a tale

That's near and dear to the hearts of those that sail

'Bout a lighthouse keeper and his mermaid wife

Who joined together for a different life

Yo ho the winds and waters tell this tale

My father was the keeper of the Eddystone light

He married a mermaid one fine night

From this union there came three

A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for a life on the rolling sea

Late one night I was trimming the glim

While singing a verse from the evening hymn

A voice from starboard shouted ahoy

And there was my mother sitting on a buoy

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for a life on the rolling sea

Tell me what has become of my children three

My mother she did ask of me

One was exhibited as a talking fish

The other was served on a chafing dish

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for a life on the rolling sea

Then the phosphorous flashed in her seaweed hair

I looked again and me mother wasn't there

A voice came echoing out of the night

To hell with the keeper of the Eddystone light

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for a life on the rolling sea

Yo ho

Yo ho

Yo ho

Yo ho

Yo ho
