The Last of the Privateers

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]
