The AmDiamond is a Emship me lads
For Amthe Davis Straits she's Embound
And Amthe Quay it is all Emgarnished
With Ambonnie Glassies Amround

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 Amcheer up, me Glads
Let your Amhearts never Gfail
For the Cbonnie ship The DmDiamond
Goes Ama-fishing Gfor the Amwhale 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
