WHALE SONG
Words and music by Steve Grimes, Rock River Publishing, 1983
As recorded by Sally Rogers on "Piggyback Planet" (1990 Round River Records)

CHORUS: Where in the world are the whales?
Where do they wander way under the waves?
What would you tell them if somebody wondered
Where in the world are the whales?

1. The blue whale's the largest of all of the mammals
And she lives where the water's like ice,
And the sperm whale lives down by the equator
'Cause she thinks the warm water is nice. CHORUS

2. The right whale swims in the northern Pacific
From Alaska on down to Japan.
And the gray whale swims down to South California
And she stays close to land when she can. CHORUS

3. The humpback whale swims down round Hawaii
And he feeds upon small krill and kelp.
The killer whale swims in the Puget Sound waters.
When they see him, the people cry, "Help!" CHORUS
