The Last of the Privateers - Allan Taylor (艾伦·泰勒)/Ian Melrose/Hans-Joerg Maucksch/Chris Leslie[00:00:00]
In the company of thieves[00:00:24]
I set out for the plunder[00:00:27]
In search of adventure[00:00:32]
And tender in years[00:00:35]
I threw in my lot[00:00:39]
And was cast asunder[00:00:42]
And I joined with the last[00:00:50]
Of the privateers[00:00:53]
Mexican gold[00:01:01]
Rum from jamaica[00:01:04]
To the isle of bermuda[00:01:08]
To wait out the year[00:01:11]
Then south around the horn[00:01:16]
And the devil can take her[00:01:19]
It was all in a day[00:01:26]
For a privateer[00:01:29]
I took no advance[00:01:44]
In pay or promotion[00:01:48]
And squandered my share[00:01:52]
Until it was gone[00:01:55]
I answered to no man[00:01:59]
Whatever his station[00:02:02]
And I lived out the dream[00:02:09]
To follow the sun[00:02:13]
For those dark skinned beauties[00:02:20]
My heart is still yearning[00:02:23]
With a smile for a rogue[00:02:27]
They would sing us ashore[00:02:30]
With wine and strong liquor[00:02:35]
And young blood a'burning[00:02:38]
I would give up a ransom[00:02:45]
To see them once more[00:02:48]
I'll ship on board[00:03:03]
A nantucket trader[00:03:06]
And follow the course[00:03:11]
Whichever she steers[00:03:14]
South to the indies[00:03:18]
By chance to bermuda[00:03:21]
And I'll bid farewell[00:03:28]
To the privateers[00:03:31]
So be cheery my friends[00:03:38]
Don't be down hearted[00:03:42]
Drink a health to the man[00:03:45]
Who throws away cares[00:03:49]
Lift your glass and be merry[00:03:53]
Before we are parted[00:03:56]
Bid adieu to the last[00:04:03]
Of the privateers[00:04:06]
Strike up the fiddle[00:04:48]
If you've a notion[00:04:51]
And lay me down easy[00:04:55]
Under the stars[00:04:58]
Give me up to the deep[00:05:02]
Of a dark rolling ocean[00:05:05]
Say farewell[00:05:12]
To the last[00:05:14]
Of the privateers[00:05:15]
