With this sheet music, you can play the sea shanty "Wellerman" on piano!
It's an accurate, playable piano arrangement of the traditional folk song.
This sheet music also includes the full lyrics (6 verses).
"Wellerman" is a sea shanty from New Zealand which dates back to the early 19th century.
Back then, the term "Wellerman" was used for employees of the Weller Brothers’ shipping company in Sydney, which supplied whaling stations around New Zealand with essential provisions (including sugar, tea, and rum, as mentioned in the song).
In 2021, the song became an internet meme - TikTok users collaborated with the app's duet function to record virtual group performances of the song, which soon starting to go viral.
"Wellerman" also makes for a fantastic piano cover!
Here are the full lyrics to the traditional sea shanty "Wellerman":
There once was a ship that put to sea,
And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down,
Blow, me bully boys, blow!
Chorus:
Soon may the Wellerman come
to bring us sugar and tea and rum.
One day, when the tonguing' is done,
We'll take our leave and go.
She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore.
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow.
Soon may the Wellerman come...
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her.
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her,
When she dived down below.
Soon may the Wellerman come...
No line was cut, no whale was freed,
An' the captain's mind was not on greed!
But he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow
Soon may the Wellerman come...
For forty days or even more,
the line went slack then tight once more,
All boats were lost, there were only four
and still that whale did go.
Soon may the Wellerman come...
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on,
The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone!
The Wellerman makes his regular call
to encourage the captain, crew and all!
Soon may the Wellerman come...

I actually have a music 🎵 competition at school 🏫 and me and my friends are participating and we are playing ukelele and our song 🎶 wellerman the music 🎼 show is on Tuesday 25th may 2021 I am so scared 😱
@@hello-ww3ep damn calm down sista--
It is really easy actually
If u played piano for around 7-8 months u can play this with practice
I had those lyrics in the head during he played : 🎶
There one was a lad who looked like me
He was an innocent soul
But he loved TV
His friend got him into anime
And now he's a goddamn weeb🎶
XDDD I love this XDDDD
@@clarasweetie9539 for me it’s better than the original XDD
@@paul5031 it is better than the original this is so relatable XD
This is all I can hear while listening to the instrumental instead of the original version with lyrics and it haunts me.
@@amphion2277 same XD
The crescendo at the end was absolutely amazing
Thank you! 😊
@@Montechait you’re welcome :)

My pleasure! Thank you!!
Finally someone who plays the "tea" in "tea and rum" In the right key.
I just started piano 3 months ago and i didn’t take any lessons or anything but after i listened to this song it encouraged me soo much that i learned the advance verison of it. Thank you..
That’s wonderful to hear! Hope it’ll bring you a lot of joy in the future!
Is anyone else addicted to this song and this channel
we looting da ships with this one (this is very fire ngl)
it´s okay, easy to play because it´s always the same. This is probably a good cover for beginners.
ikr? i was just singing the first verse for each one because its exactly the same.
Easy for beginners? Bro then how should I qualify to be a beginner.... My left hand and right hand refuse to sync no matter how hard I try...my brain gets fried when I try to sync them...
I love this song, thank you for posting!
His playing is so smooth it’s like I’m hearing the real song but without the talk🤩
This is so talented it should get to 100M likes
Thank you! :D
the border of the sheet music thing has little waves to fit the song, neat!
You are the most talented piano player i know
🎶Soon May the Wellerman came
To Bring US sugar and Tea and Rum (hey!)
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll Take Our leave and go~🎶
I Love this Song🎶
I have listened to this more than 15 times
You are the best piano player I ever saw and I love the songs you play.
Thank you very much!
this is the best
I love this song!
Same!
PUT IN THE HIGHST SPEEC SETTING ITS REALLY COOL
[Verse 1]
There once was a ship that put to sea
And the name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
Blow, me bully boys, blow (Hah!)
[Chorus]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 2]
She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her, a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow (Hah!)
[Chorus]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 3]
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down below (Huh!)
[Chorus]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 4]
No line was cut, no whale was freed
The Captain's mind was not on greed
But he belonged to the whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow (Huh!)
[Chorus]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 5]
For forty days, or even more
The line went slack, then tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
But still that whale did go
[Chorus]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go
[Verse 6]
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
The line's not cut and the whale's not gone
The Wellerman makes his a regular call
To encourage the Captain, crew, and all
[Chorus]
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin' is done
We'll take our leave and go

The fact i can hear the lyrics in my mind has me surprised
Anyone else?
You are so talented! My hands still won’t get used to the piano
Thank you! Take your time, they will get used to it eventually! :)
@@Montechait thank you’re for the tip
Me watching all day
yeah you are correct he is so talented!
The elegance is in the simplicity! Beautiful…well executed 👍🏻

This sounds hard but is actually easy to learn if you have the right patients and if you break it up to peaces it is actually easy to learn
So gooddddd i like it

Thank you, will do! :)
@@Montechait i cant believe u replied and no problem
That is soooooo good👍🏻
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
This is the song that gets my hopes up to win
Great arrangement/cover! one point of criticism though, in the chorus the bass tends to drown out the treble/melody, it might be a good idea to boost the mid ranges in the mix in order to make the lead part stand out
Thanks for the feedback, that's definitely something I'll consider! :)
Soft and nice
This...this is a masterpiece
Thank you!:)
@@Montechait no prob :) you’re really talented
He is so good at playing the piano
i love this song!
Wow this people so amazing
I love this song
This beautiful song on guitar 🎸
