Wheel Of Fortune

Gotta a whale of a tale to tell you lad.
It’s a whale of a tale or two,
About the flappin' fish and girls, I’ve loved on nights like this,
With the moon above.
And a whale of a tale,
It’s all true,
I swear by my tattoo.
There was Mermaid Minnie, met her down in Madagascar.
She would kiss me,
Anytime that i would ask her.
Then one evening, her flame of love blew out,
Blow me down and pick me up,
She swapped me for a trout.
Gotta a whale of a tale to tell you lad.
It’s a whale of a tale or two,
About the flappin' fish and girls, I’ve loved on nights like this,
With the moon above.
And a whale of a tale,
It’s all true,
I swear by my tattoo.
There was Typoon Tessie, met on the Coast of Java.
When we kissed I… bubbled up like molten lava.
Then she gave me,
The scare of my young life.
Blow me down and pick me up,
She was the captain’s wife.
Gotta a whale of a tale to tell you lad.
It’s a whale of a tale or two,
About the flappin' fish and girls, I’ve loved on nights like this,
With the moon above.
And a whale of a tale,
It’s all true,
I swear by my tattoo.
Then there was Harpoon Hannah,
Had a look that spelled out danger.
My heart quivered,
When she whispered, «I'm there stranger.»
Bought her trinkets,
That sailors can’t afford.
Sailors can’t afford.
And when spent my last red cent,
She tossed my overboard.
Gotta a whale of a tale to tell you lad.
It’s a whale of a tale or two,
About the flappin' fish and girls, I’ve loved on nights like this,
With the moon above.
And a whale of a tale,
It’s all true,
I swear by my tattoo!
