Lyrics[]
Jimmy: Morning's here, the sun is shining
Time to all get out of bed
Walk along the road that's winding
Emma: You better not dilly dally, sleepy head
Jimmy: Toss the bag over your shoulder
Shout and wave to all you meet
Take a coat, it's getting colder
Emma: Make sure your rubber boots are on your feet
There's a dance they dance on the boat, on the sea
The hornpipe is a dance for you and me
Everyone: And the whales will greet us with their jumping
Diving deep then flying high
Sea lions with their flippers splashing
Splashing as our lovely boats sail by
Waves the flags we're ocean going
Toss the ropes, we're off we're free
I can feel the cold wind blowing
Hoist the sails we're heading off to sea
Jimmy: Morning's here, the sun is shining
Time to all get out of bed
Walk along the road that's winding
Emma: You better not dilly dally, sleepy head
Jimmy: Toss the bag over your shoulder
Shout and wave to all you meet
Take a coat, it's getting colder
Emma: Make sure your rubber boots are on your feet
Everyone: And the whales will greet us with their jumping
Diving deep then flying high
Sea lions with their flippers splashing
Splashing as our lovely boats sail by
Waves the flags we're ocean going
Toss the ropes, we're off we're free
I can feel the cold wind blowing
Hoist the sails we're heading off to sea
The hornpipe is the dance for you and me!
(Instrumental on part 2)
