lirik lagu the longest johns – bonny ship the diamond
[verse 1]
the diamond is a ship, me lads, for the davis strait we’re bound
the quay it is all garnished with bonnie lasses ’round;
captain thompson gives the orders to sail the ocean wide
o and the sun it never sets, me lads, nor darkness dims the sky
[chorus]
and it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
[verse 2]
along the quay of peterhead, the lasses stand around
with shawls all pulled around their them and their salt tears runnin’ down;
well don’t you weep, my bonny lass, though you’ll be left behind
for the rose will bloom on greenland’s ice before we change our mind
[chorus]
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
[verse 3]
here’s a health to the resolution, likewise the eliza swan
three cheers for the battler of montrose and the diamond, ship of fame;
we wear the trousers of the white and jackets of the blue
when we get back to peterhead, we’ll have sweethearts anew
[chorus]
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
[verse 4]
it will be bright both day and night when greenland lads come hame
our ship full up with oil, me lads, and money to our name;
we’ll make the cradles for to rock and the blankets for to tear
and every lass in peterhead sing: “hushabye, my dear”
[chorus]
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
for it’s cheer up me lads, let your hearts never fail
for the bonny ship, the diamond, goes a~fishing for the whale
