[00:00:00] Eddystone Light (Album Version) - The Brothers Four

[00:00:01] Written by：McGayden/J. E. Cason

[00:00:05] Yo ho here's a tale

[00:00:09] That's fair and dear to the hearts of those that sail

[00:00:14] 'Bout a lighthouse keeper and his bare faced wife

[00:00:16] Who joined together for a different life

[00:00:19] Yo ho the winds and water tell the tale

[00:00:26] My father was the keeper of the eddystone light

[00:00:28] He married a mermaid one fine night

[00:00:30] From this union there came three

[00:00:33] A porpoise and a porgy and the other one me

[00:00:35] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:00:41] Oh for the life on the rolling sea

[00:00:48] Late one night I was a trimming of the glim

[00:00:50] While singing a verse from the evening hymn

[00:00:52] A voice on the starboard shouted ahoy

[00:00:55] And there was my mother a sitting on a boy

[00:00:57] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:01:02] Oh for the life on the rolling sea

[00:01:09] Tell me what has become of my children three

[00:01:11] My mother she did asked of me

[00:01:14] One was exhibited as a talking fish

[00:01:16] The other was served on a chafing dish

[00:01:19] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:01:24] Oh for the life on the rolling sea

[00:01:31] Then the phosphorous flashed in her seaweed hair

[00:01:33] I looked again and me mother wasn't there

[00:01:36] A voice came echoing out from the night

[00:01:38] To hell with the keeper of the eddystone light

[00:01:41] Yo ho ho the wind blows free

[00:01:46] Oh for the life on the rolling sea

[00:01:53] Yo ho yo ho

[00:01:57] Yo ho yo ho yo ho
