It's a long, long way
To the Gulf Of California
And the whales that are gray
Are telling stories along the way
Mama whale's got a lot to do
Before that warm water rendezvous
And even if there is no God
She's got a duty to her pod
Hey, Mama, make a match for me
Fourteen maidens and her hands are full
Riding herd on the young, clumsy bulls
She's gotta make the maidens a match
So they can make a whole new batch
And even if there is no God
She's got a duty to her pod
Hey, Mama, make a match for me
Mama whale she said to me
That I should ask you to dance
I circled you for a time or two
And thus began a whale romance
And in the sunny Mexico waters
We spawned a great gray daughter
And even if there is no God
We've got a duty to our pod
Hey, Mama, make a match for me
Make a match for me
Make a match for me
To the Gulf Of California
And the whales that are gray
Are telling stories along the way
Mama whale's got a lot to do
Before that warm water rendezvous
And even if there is no God
She's got a duty to her pod
Hey, Mama, make a match for me
Fourteen maidens and her hands are full
Riding herd on the young, clumsy bulls
She's gotta make the maidens a match
So they can make a whole new batch
And even if there is no God
She's got a duty to her pod
Hey, Mama, make a match for me
Mama whale she said to me
That I should ask you to dance
I circled you for a time or two
And thus began a whale romance
And in the sunny Mexico waters
We spawned a great gray daughter
And even if there is no God
We've got a duty to our pod
Hey, Mama, make a match for me
Make a match for me
Make a match for me
