Loading...

come all you warlike seamen that to the sea belong
i’ll tell you of a fight, me boys, aboard the nottingham
it was of an irish captain; his name was somerville
with courage bold did he control he played his part so well

’twas on the eighth of june my boys when at spithead we lay
on board there came an order our anchor for to weigh
bound for the coast of ireland our orders did run so
for us to cruise and not refuse against a daring foe

we had not sailed many lengths at sea before a ship we spiеd
she being some lofty frеnchman come a~bearing down so wide
we hailed her in french, me boys, she asked from whence we came
our answer was from liverpool and london is our name

“oh, pray, are you some man of war? oh, pray, what may you be?”
oh, then replied our captain “an, that you soon shall see
come strike your english colours or else you shall bring to
since you’re so stout you shall give out or else we will sink you!”

well, the first broadside we gave to them it caused them for to wonder
their mainmast and their rigging too come a~rattlin’ down like thunder
it drove them from their quarter they could no longer stay
our guns did roar we made quite sure we showed them british play

so now we’ve took that ship my boys god speed to us fair wind
that we might sail to plymouth~town if the heavens prove so kind
we’ll drink a health unto our captain and all such warlike souls
to him we’ll drink and never flinch out of our flowing bowls
