<pre><font size='+2'>QUEENSLAND WHALERS lyrics ERIC BOGLE</font><br>`Queensland Whalers`<br />
<br />
-Eric Bogle<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I`ve sailed the North Atlantic with ice flows in the breeze<br />
<br />
I`ve sailed the Dutch East Indies o`er the calm blue sunny seas<br />
<br />
When I think of missing seamen me heart returns again<br />
<br />
To a season spent in Moretan Bay with Queensland Whaling Men.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane<br />
<br />
You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain<br />
<br />
You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail<br />
<br />
And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
To men who`ve chased the brumbies, caught bullocks by the tail<br />
<br />
It really is no problem to catch a humpback whale<br />
<br />
You steer your iron sea-horse, poke your gun through the rigging struts<br />
<br />
And when she runs through the coral scrub, you belt her in the guts<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane<br />
<br />
You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain<br />
<br />
You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail<br />
<br />
And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now men up in the crows nest, so whaling legends go<br />
<br />
When they spy a humpback whale they yell out `Thar She Blows!`<br />
<br />
But here in sunny Queensland you`ll often hear them shout<br />
<br />
`There goes a bloody beauty mate, so get yer finger out!`<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane<br />
<br />
You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain<br />
<br />
You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail<br />
<br />
And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
From Moreton to Caloundra, bronze whaler sharks abound<br />
<br />
They wait like dingoes in the scrub for a wounded beast that`s down<br />
<br />
But but for all their bloody savagery, well they just can`t compare<br />
<br />
With the big bite that the tax man takes when he gets hold of your share!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane<br />

You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain<br />

You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail<br />
<br />
And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And when the season`s over, we`ll head for Brisbane Town<br />
<br />
And in the nearest boozer our sorrows we will drown<br />
<br />
With beer and firey whiskey and when we`ve had enough<br />
<br />
We`ll steer a steady zig zag course and never give a stuff!<br />

`Queensland Whalers`

-Eric Bogle

I`ve sailed the North Atlantic with ice flows in the breeze

I`ve sailed the Dutch East Indies o`er the calm blue sunny seas

When I think of missing seamen me heart returns again

To a season spent in Moretan Bay with Queensland Whaling Men.

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane

You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain

You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail

And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale

To men who`ve chased the brumbies, caught bullocks by the tail

It really is no problem to catch a humpback whale

You steer your iron sea-horse, poke your gun through the rigging struts

And when she runs through the coral scrub, you belt her in the guts

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane

You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain

You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail

And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale

Now men up in the crows nest, so whaling legends go

When they spy a humpback whale they yell out `Thar She Blows!`

But here in sunny Queensland you`ll often hear them shout

`There goes a bloody beauty mate, so get yer finger out!`

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane

You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain

You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail

And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale

From Moreton to Caloundra, bronze whaler sharks abound

They wait like dingoes in the scrub for a wounded beast that`s down

But but for all their bloody savagery, well they just can`t compare

With the big bite that the tax man takes when he gets hold of your share!

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane

You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain

You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail

And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale

And when the season`s over, we`ll head for Brisbane Town

And in the nearest boozer our sorrows we will drown

With beer and firey whiskey and when we`ve had enough

We`ll steer a steady zig zag course and never give a stuff!

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you`ve cut the sugar cane

You`ve driven herds of cattle o`er the dry and dusty plain

You`ve dug the ore at Isa, laid countless miles of rail

And now you`ve come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale
