THE SEALS
Chorus.
For the Halls tha are upon the look out
Tha love to see a seäl,
An when tha git well in my boys
He's bound to taäste a meäl.
2.
The owd seäl said unto his wife,
Yon's sumthing coming sudden,
We must soon muster out o' this
Or we shall get plum-pudden.
Chorus.
For the Halls they are upon the look out
Tha love to see a seäl,
An when they git well in my boys
He's bound to taäste a meäl.
SEÄLS ON THE LONG SAND.
1.
Bill and Jim was shoving down the North
And keepin close to the land,
Jim says to Bill, we'll pull across,
Right ower to the Long Sand.[1]
Chorus, after each verse.
For the Halls tha are upon the look out,
Tha love to see a seäl,
An when tha git well in my boys,
He's bound to taäste a meäl.
2.
And when tha hed got ower
Tha hed a cheerful feel.
Bill says to Jim "What greät heäd's yon?"
It must be a monstrous seäl.
3.
For his eyes like fire they did shine
An his teeth was long an white,
Then slap bang went boäth the guns,
An he wished 'em boäth good-night.
4.
Well done, my lad! We've hit 'im hard,
He'll niver git ashore,
For I knaw his head will ake to-day
And 'twill be very sore.
