The Diamond is a ship, my lads
For the Davis Strait she's bound
and the quay it is all garnished
With bonnie lasses 'round
Captain Thompson gives the order
To sail the ocean wide
Where the sun it never sets, my lads
Nor darkness dims the sky
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
Along the quay at Peterhead
The lasses stand around
Wi' their shawls all pulled about them
And the saut tears runnin' doon
Don't you weep, my bonnie lass
Though you be left behind
For the rose will grow on Greenland's ice
Before we change our mind
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy hoy!
Here's a health to the Resolution
Likewise to Eliza Swan
Here's a health to the Battler of Montrose
And the Diamond, ship of fame
We wear the trousers o' the white
The jackets o' the blue
When we return to Peterhead
We'll hae sweethearts enou'
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy!
Hoy hoy!
It will be bright both day and night
When the Greenland lads come hame
Our ship full up with oil, my lads
And money to our name
We'll make the cradles for to rock
And the blankets for to tear
And every lass in Peterhead sing
"Hushabye, my dear"
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
For the Davis Strait she's bound
and the quay it is all garnished
With bonnie lasses 'round
Captain Thompson gives the order
To sail the ocean wide
Where the sun it never sets, my lads
Nor darkness dims the sky
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
Along the quay at Peterhead
The lasses stand around
Wi' their shawls all pulled about them
And the saut tears runnin' doon
Don't you weep, my bonnie lass
Though you be left behind
For the rose will grow on Greenland's ice
Before we change our mind
And it's cheer up my lads
Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
Hoy!

Let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship the Diamond
Goes a-fishing for the whale
