<br />
     (G) C G7 C G / G C F G7 C / C G7 C F C G C G / C F C F C<br />
<br />
     In that wee dark engine room,<br />
     Where the chill seeps through your soul,<br />
     How we huddled round that wee pot stove<br />
     That burned oily rags and coal.<br />
<br />
C F C G7 G /<br />
<br />
How the winter blizzards blow, and the whaling fleet`s at rest,<br />
Tucked in Leigh harbor`s sheltered bay, safely anchored ten abreast.<br />
The whalers at their stations, as from shed to shed they go,<br />
Carry little bags of coal with them, and a little iron stove.<br />
<br />
     CHORUS<br />
<br />
The fireman Paddy worked with me on the engine stiff and cold.<br />
A stranger to the truth was he - there`s not a lie he hasn`t told.<br />
And he boasted of his gold mine, and of all the hearts he`d won,<br />
And his bonny sense of humor shone just like a ray of sun.<br />
<br />
     CHORUS<br />
<br />
Then one day we saw the sun and factory ships` return.<br />
Meet your old friends, sing a song; hope the season won`t be long,<br />
Then homeward bound when it`s over; we`ll leave this icy hold,<br />
But I always will remember that little iron stove.<br />
<br />
     CHORUS<br />
<br />

`Many songs are sung about whaling and whalers.  Almost all describe<br />
a voyage, or the catch of the whale, or some of the men and their<br />

chilling existance of the men who stayed with the ships when they<br />
were laid up for the winter, doing routine maintenance and engine<br />
overhaul in the clammy, unheated holds of the engine rooms.` -ET<br />

WEE DARK ENGINE ROOM

(G) C G7 C G / G C F G7 C / C G7 C F C G C G / C F C F C

In that wee dark engine room,
Where the chill seeps through your soul,
How we huddled round that wee pot stove
That burned oily rags and coal.

C F C G7 G /

How the winter blizzards blow, and the whaling fleet`s at rest,
Tucked in Leigh harbor`s sheltered bay, safely anchored ten abreast.
The whalers at their stations, as from shed to shed they go,
Carry little bags of coal with them, and a little iron stove.

CHORUS

The fireman Paddy worked with me on the engine stiff and cold.
A stranger to the truth was he - there`s not a lie he hasn`t told.
And he boasted of his gold mine, and of all the hearts he`d won,
And his bonny sense of humor shone just like a ray of sun.

CHORUS

Then one day we saw the sun and factory ships` return.
Meet your old friends, sing a song; hope the season won`t be long,
Then homeward bound when it`s over; we`ll leave this icy hold,
But I always will remember that little iron stove.

CHORUS
