[00:00:00] The Eddystone Light - The Brothers Four

[00:00:00] Written by：The Brothers Four

[00:00:04] Yo ho here's a tale

[00:00:09] That's near and dear to the hearts of those that sail

[00:00:14] 'Bout a lighthouse keeper and his mermaid wife

[00:00:16] Who joined together for a different life

[00:00:18] Yo ho the winds and waters tell this tale

[00:00:25] My father was the keeper of the Eddystone light

[00:00:28] He married a mermaid one fine night

[00:00:30] From this union there came three

[00:00:33] A porpoise and a porgy and the other was me

[00:00:35] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:00:40] Oh for a life on the rolling sea

[00:00:47] Late one night I was trimming the glim

[00:00:49] While singing a verse from the evening hymn

[00:00:52] A voice from starboard shouted ahoy

[00:00:54] And there was my mother sitting on a buoy

[00:00:57] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:01:02] Oh for a life on the rolling sea

[00:01:09] Tell me what has become of my children three

[00:01:11] My mother she did ask of me

[00:01:14] One was exhibited as a talking fish

[00:01:16] The other was served on a chafing dish

[00:01:19] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:01:24] Oh for a life on the rolling sea

[00:01:31] Then the phosphorous flashed in her seaweed hair

[00:01:33] I looked again and me mother wasn't there

[00:01:36] A voice came echoing out of the night

[00:01:38] To hell with the keeper of the Eddystone light

[00:01:41] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:01:46] Oh for a life on the rolling sea

[00:01:53] Yo ho

[00:01:55] Yo ho

[00:01:57] Yo ho

[00:02:00] Yo ho

[00:02:02] Yo ho
