oh come with me to the rolling sea where
the wind and the breakers roar
to a lighthouse out beyond the lee on a
lonely
rocky shore
where portland bill and russ and
chromati
are trimming the light and working
busily
on the watch to see what they might see
over the rolling waves
we'll have no fear cause our friends are
near where the weather's coming still
and we'll have some fun and laughter
with the adventures of portland bill
[Music]

chair the referee but there's just one
man that we really want to see

his team at the top of the league

be most surprised if they get one past

an old toy train a dolphin spain a thing
of a jig and a sew and sole in the chest

of socks a fancy shirt with a red bow

picture of a girl with a sparkle in her
eye in the chest in the old sea chest

for the wind is blowing today
it's blowing the cobwebs away
the clothes on the line are beginning to
dance all the wind is blowing today
guess it's true
where do you see
cause the met office forecast agreed
that the wind is blowing today
horse fire and it's blowing again
it'll lift off your hats blow it into
the sea
[Music]
degrees
[Music]
when the wind blows enough the salty sea
comes dancing to a sea shanty it feels
so right and it feels so free to be a
lighthouse keeper
yo h* h* see the big ships go across the
rolling sea
sunshine or wind or rain or fog write it
down in a daily log with a cup of tea
it's warm and snug to be your life
housekeepers yo h* h* see the big ships
go across the rolling street
and way up here where the lamp burns
bright on top of the world by day or
night with a telescope it feels just
right to be a lighthouse keeper
[Music]
up the stairs up the stairs up the
stairs we go
up past the bedroom
from the rooms below
up past the service room the left foot
and the right
when we get up to the top
it's time to light the light
downstairs down the stairs to the rooms
below
down past the service room and bedroom
we will go
down to the living room the room i like
the best cause after climbing all the
stairs
