Warlike Seamen - Ian Robb/Terry Rudden/Seamus Mcguire/Grit Laskin[00:00:00]

Come all you warlike seamen[00:00:02]

That to the seas belong [00:00:05]

I'll tell you of a fight my boys [00:00:08]

On board the Nottingham [00:00:11]

It was of an Irish Captain [00:00:14]

His name was Somerville [00:00:17]

With courage bold did he control [00:00:20]

He played his part so well [00:00:23]

It was on the eighth of June my boys [00:00:26]

When at Spithead we lay [00:00:30]

On board there came an order[00:00:33]

Our anchor for to weigh [00:00:36]

Bound for the coast of Ireland [00:00:39]

Our orders did run so [00:00:42]

For us to cruise and not refuse[00:00:45]

Against a daring foe [00:00:48]

We had not sailed many lengths[00:00:51]

At sea before a ship we spied [00:00:54]

She being some lofty Frenchman[00:00:57]

Come a-bearing down so wide [00:01:00]

We hailed her off France my boys [00:01:04]

They asked from where we came [00:01:07]

Our answer was From Liverpool[00:01:09]

And London is our name [00:01:13]

Oh pray are you some man of war[00:01:16]

Or pray what may you be [00:01:19]

Oh then replied our Captain [00:01:22]

And that you soon shall see [00:01:25]

Come strike your English colours[00:01:28]

Or else you shall bring to [00:01:32]

Since you're so stout you shall[00:01:34]

Give out or else we will sink you [00:01:37]

The first broadside we gave to them[00:01:41]

Which made them to to wonder [00:01:44]

Their main-mast and their rigging[00:01:47]

Came a-rattling down like thunder [00:01:50]

We drove them from their quarter[00:01:53]

They could no longer stay [00:01:57]

Our guns did roar we made so sure [00:01:59]

We showed them British play [00:02:03]

So now we've took that ship my boys [00:02:29]

God speed us fair wind[00:02:32]

That we might sail to Plymouth[00:02:35]

I own if the heavens prove so kind [00:02:37]

We'll drink a health unto our Captain[00:02:41]

And all such warlike souls [00:02:44]

To him we'll drink and never flinch[00:02:47]

Out of a flowing bowl[00:02:50]
