Lyrics:

A whistling lad came calling to his sweetheart
To tell her he was sailing off to sea
A whistling lad became this lassie’s sorrow
For a whistling lad and she would never be

Waves crash upon the bough
The wind she blows and moans and howls
Her cries stretch across the sea
While she listens for the lad
Who was whistling

Now whistling lads be sure ye not disturb her
She sleeps amongst the fair and gentle breeze
Awake she comes reminded of her lover
If not be him she’ll keel your ship into the sea

Waves crash upon the bough
The wind she blows and moans and howls
Her cries stretch across the sea
While she listens for the lad
Who was whistling

Who was whistling?
(Who was whistling?)
Who was whistling?
(Who was whistling?)
Who was whistling,
If not my sailor?

Who was whistling?
(Who was whistling?)
Who was whistling?
(Who was whistling?)
Who was whistling,
He’s not my sailor…

A whistling lad was calling to his sweetheart
To tell her he was sailing off to sea
A whistling lad became this lassie’s sorrow
For a whistling lad and she would never be

Waves crash upon the bough
The wind she blows and moans and howls
Her cries stretch across the sea
While she listens for the lad
(While she listens for the lad)
While she listens for the lad
Who was whistling
