The rock will be our ship, the tree will be our sail
Heave ho and away we go searching for a whale
Heave ho and away we go searching for a whale
The stones are floating islands, our dog is a friendly seal
Heave ho and away we go searching for a whale ] x2
Our sturdy ship can weather many a storm and gale
Heave ho and away we go searching for a whale ] x2
Oh whale we come to greet you, King of the boundless sea
We cheer and shout to see your spout and we?re happy as can be ] x2
But now the day is over, our ship is turning round
We wave from the prow good-bye for now
And we are homeward bound
We wave from the prow good-bye for now
And we are homeward bound BUT!
Tomorrow the rock will be our ship - the tree will be our sail
Heave ho and away we go searching for a whale ] x3
