Eddystone Light - The Brothers Four (四兄弟)

Written by：McGayden/J. E. Cason

Yo ho here's a tale

That's fair and dear to the hearts of those that sail

'Bout a lighthouse keeper and his bare faced wife

Who joined together for a different life

Yo ho the winds and water tell the tale

My father was the keeper of the eddystone light

He married a mermaid one fine night

From this union there came three

A porpoise and a porgy and the other one me

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for the life on the rolling sea

Late one night I was a trimming of the glim

While singing a verse from the evening hymn

A voice on the starboard shouted ahoy

And there was my mother a sitting on a boy

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for the life on the rolling sea

Tell me what has become of my children three

My mother she did asked of me

One was exhibited as a talking fish

The other was served on a chafing dish

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for the life on the rolling sea

Then the phosphorous flashed in her seaweed hair

I looked again and me mother wasn't there

A voice came echoing out from the night

To hell with the keeper of the eddystone light

Yo ho ho the wind blows free

Oh for the life on the rolling sea

Yo ho yo ho

Yo ho yo ho yo ho
