The Eddystone Light
Oh, me 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
Chorus: Yo ho ho, the wind blows free, oh for the life on the rolling sea
One day as i was a-trimmin' the glim Humming a tune from the evening hymn A voice from the starboard shouted, 'ahoy!' And there was me mother a-sittin' on the buoy
Chorus
'oh what has become of me children three?' Me mother then she asked of me One was exhibited as a talking fish The other was served in a chafing dish Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Chorus
Then the phosporus flashed in her seaweed hair I looked again, but me mother wasn't there But i heard her voice echoing back through the night: 'the devil take the keeper of the eddystone light!'
Chorus
Oh the moral of the story you'll learn when you find To leave god's creatures for what nature had in mind For fishes are for cookin', mermaids are for tales Seaweed is for sushi and protecting is for whales
Chorus
