The aDiamond is a eship me lads
For athe Davis Straits she's ebound
And athe Quay it is all egarnished
With abonnie Glassies around

Captain Thompson gives the order
To sail the ocean wide
Where the sun it never sets me lads
Nor darkness dims the sky

Ref:
And it's acheer up, me Glads
Let your ahearts never Gfail
For the Cbonnie ship The dDiamond
Goes aa-fishing Gfor the awhale x2

Along the quay at Peterhead
The lassies stand around
Wi' their shawls all pulled about them
And the salt tears runnin' down
Oh don't you weep, my bonnie lass
Though you be left behind
For the rose will grow on Greenland's ice
Before we change our mind

Here's a health to The Resolution
Likewise the Eliza Swan
Here's a health to the Battler of Montrose
And The Diamond ship of fame
We wear the trousers of the white
And the jackets of the blue
When we return to Peterhead
We'll hae sweethearts anoo
