lirik lagu burl ives - the eddystone light
my father was the keeper of the eddystone light
and he slept with 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
one night while i was a~trimmin’ of the glim
a~singin’ a verse from the evening hymn
a voice from the starboard shouted, “ahoy!”
and there was my mother a~sittin’ on a buoy
yo, ho, ho, the wind blows free, oh, for a life on the rolling sea
“oh, what has become of my children three?”
my mothеr then she asked of mе
“one was exhibited as a talking fish
and the other was served in a chafing dish”
yo, ho, ho, the wind blows free, oh, for a life on the rolling sea
then the phosphorus flashed in her seaweed hair
i looked again, and my mother wasn’t there
a voice come a~echoing out through the night:
“to h~ll with the keeper of the eddystone light!”
yo, ho, ho, the wind blows free, oh, for a life on the rolling sea
