--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There once was a ship that put to sea,
And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down,
Blow, me bully boys, blow!
Chorus (after each verse):
(HUH!)
Soon may the Wellerman come
to bring us sugar and tea and rum.
One day, when the tonguing' is done,
We'll take our leave and go.
She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore.
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow.
{Chorus}
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her.
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her,
When she dived down below.
{Chorus}
No line was cut, no whale was freed,
An' the captain's mind was not on greed!
But he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow
{Chorus}
For forty days or even more,
the line went slack then tight once more,
All boats were lost, there were only four
and still that whale did go.
{Chorus}
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on,
The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone!
The Wellerman makes his regular call
to encourage the captain, crew and all!
{Chorus x2 til Finish}

Idk if this is 100% correct, but the background to this story is that a "wellerman" would be someone who would bring luxuries and gifts to crewmen about once a month (chocolate, tea, etc.). Therefore, the wellerman was something to look foward to, which is why they are hoping he will come soon (Soon may the wellerman come to bring us sugar and tea and rum).

Sorry... You just spawned curiosity... So: Lets say 1 cup of tea per Person, 1 spoon of sugar per cup of tea and 1/2 bottle of Rum for each person. 1 teabag is about 1,75g (and yes, I weight it) 1 spoon full of sugar is 3,5g Lets add 350ml water, I mean what good is all this if you can't use it eh? Calculating with 6.000 people that would add up to: 10,5 kg teabags 21,0 kg sugar 2.100 L water 2.100 L Rum (assuming that 1 bottle of rum is the same 0,7 L it is today) So in total 4.231,5kg in total cargo weight. The sugar & tea is negligible 31,5kg isn't much. The 4.200L of fluid can be carried in about 26,4 barrels (1 barrel beeing 159L). Now: The Weller brothers had a ship, the Lucy Ann. In November of 1833 the Lucy Ann returned to Sydney Harbour with 130 tons of right wale oil... I coudn't find any density for right whale oil so lets just assume 130 tons (130.000kg) is the maximum cargoload of the Lucy Ann. Remember: 4.231,5 kg (4,2315 tons) can support 6.000 people with sugar, tea & rum. The Lucy Ann could support 91.682,5 people with sugar, tea & rum. To put that in perspective: The Isle of Man had a population of aprox. 77.000 people in the year 2000. It's just an assumption, not accounting for the actual space in the ship but it shows clearly that yes, the Wellerman could easily support the whole crew here with sugar, tea & rum. I don't know about you but I think that's beautiful.

i have a feeling that this grass root resurgence of sea shanties is part of a bigger theme. I feel like the passion for exploration is being fueled again. We have Elon Musk trying to colonize mars and Bezos trying to build commercial space travel. Another theme that can emerge from this is the urge to engage in sea ferrying employment. This would certainly help economies and lower unemployment in a crucial field that goes over looked. We could even see ocean living on a boat become a thing due to rising costs of living in a home! just some thoughts, the come back of sea shanties is fascinating!
