Henry Martin - Joan Baez[00:00:00]
Written by:Joan Baez[00:00:01]
There were three brothers in merry Scotland[00:00:15]
In merry Scotland there were three[00:00:19]
And they did cast lots which of them should go[00:00:22]
Should go should go[00:00:26]
And turn robber all on the salt sea[00:00:30]
The lot it fell first upon Henry Martin[00:00:36]
The youngest of all the three[00:00:40]
That he should turn robber all on the salt sea[00:00:44]
Salt sea the salt sea[00:00:48]
For to maintain his two brothers and he[00:00:51]
They had not been sailing but a long winter's night[00:01:07]
A part of a short winter's day[00:01:11]
When he espied a stout lofty ship[00:01:15]
Lofty ship lofty ship[00:01:18]
Come bibbing down on him straight way[00:01:22]
Hello hello cried Henry Martin[00:01:30]
What makes you sail so nigh[00:01:34]
I'm a rich merchant ship bound for fair London Town[00:01:38]
London Town London Town[00:01:41]
Would you please for to let me pass by[00:01:45]
Oh no oh no cried Henry Martin[00:01:51]
This thing it never could be[00:01:55]
For I have turned robber all on the salt sea[00:01:59]
Salt sea the salt sea[00:02:02]
For to maintain my two brothers and me[00:02:05]
Come lower your tops'l and brail up your mizz'n[00:02:14]
And bring your ship under my lee[00:02:18]
Or I will give you a full cannon ball[00:02:21]
Cannon ball cannon ball[00:02:25]
And all your dear bodies drown in the salt sea[00:02:28]
Oh no we won't lower our lofty topsail[00:02:37]
Nor bring our ship under your lee[00:02:41]
And you shan't take from us our rich merchant goods[00:02:45]
Merchant goods merchant goods[00:02:49]
Nor point our bold guns to the sea[00:02:52]
Then broadside and broadside and at it they went[00:03:07]
For fully two hours or three[00:03:11]
Till Henry Martin gave to them deathshot[00:03:15]
The deathshot the deathshot[00:03:19]
And straight to the bottom went she[00:03:23]
Bad news bad news to old England came[00:03:33]
Bad news to fair London Town[00:03:37]
There's been a rich vessel and she's cast away[00:03:41]
Cast away cast away[00:03:45]
And all of her merry men drowned[00:03:50]
