"Queensland Whalers"
-Eric

I've sailed the North Atlantic ice flows in the breeze
I've the Dutch East Indies o'er the calm blue sunny seas
When I of missing seamen me heart returns again
To a season spent in Moretan Bay with Whaling Men.

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you've cut the cane
You've driven herds of cattle o'er the dry and dusty
You've dug the ore at Isa, laid miles of rail
And now you've come to Moreton Bay to catch a Whale

To men who've chased the brumbies, caught bullocks by the
It is no problem to catch a humpback whale
You steer your sea-horse, poke your gun through the rigging struts
And when she runs through the scrub, you belt her in the guts

Yo-ho you Whalers, you've cut the sugar cane
You've driven herds of o'er the dry and dusty plain
You've dug the ore at Isa, laid countless of rail
And now you've come to Moreton Bay to catch a Whale

Now men up in the crows nest, so legends go
When they spy a humpback they yell out "Thar She Blows!"
But in sunny Queensland you'll often hear them shout
"There goes a beauty mate, so get yer finger out!"

Yo-ho you Whalers, you've cut the sugar cane
You've driven herds of cattle the dry and dusty plain
You've dug the ore at Isa, laid miles of rail
And now you've come to Moreton Bay to a Humpback Whale

From Moreton to Caloundra, bronze sharks abound
They wait like dingoes in the scrub for a beast that's down
But but for all their bloody savagery, they just can't compare
With the big bite that the tax man when he gets hold of your share!

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, you've cut the cane
driven herds of cattle o'er the dry and dusty plain
You've dug the ore at Isa, countless miles of rail
And now you've come to Moreton Bay to catch a Whale

And when the season's over, we'll head for Brisbane
And in the nearest boozer our sorrows we will
With beer and firey and when we've had enough
steer a steady zig zag course and never give a stuff!

Yo-ho you Queensland Whalers, cut the sugar cane
driven herds of cattle o'er the dry and dusty plain
You've dug the ore at Isa, laid miles of rail
And now come to Moreton Bay to catch a Humpback Whale
