Once more we sail with the northerly gale through the ice and wind and rain
             A            F        A         F          C     Dm   
Them coconut fronds, them tropical lands, we soon shall see again
    Dm                   C                  F              A
Six hellish months we've passed away on the cold Kamchatka sea

Once more we sail with the northerly gale, towards our island home
             A           F       A         F        C         Dm   
Our mainmast sprung, our whaling done, and we ain't got far to roam
    Dm                 C                  F                 A
Our stu'n's'l booms is carried away, what care we for that sound?
  Dm     A       F     A         F         C        Dm   
A living gale is after us, thank God we're homeward bound!

How soft the breeze through the island trees, now the ice is far astern
             A          F        A           F       C      Dm   
Them native maids, them tropical glades, is awaiting our return
     Dm                  C                     F                A
Even now their big brown eyes look out, hoping some fine day to see

Our baggy sails, running 'fore the gales, rolling down to old Maui
