pirates for sail - ballad of ol' redcoat كلمات الأغنية

there was a pirate captain
ruthless man was he
dread renowned from london_town to the coast of barbary
he raided all the trading routes from dublin to bombay
and every time he’d board a ship his crew would hear him say;

“fetch me ol’ red doublet, bring it to me now
i’ll wear it in the rigging as they fire across the bow
fetch me ol’ red doublet, it’s got the luck we need
for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me bleed!”

for 20 years he pillaged across the seven seas
the mention of his name would bring all sailors to their knees
the king dispatched a frigate to hunt the pirate man
and when ol’ redcoat heard the news he smiled and clapped his hands

“fetch me ol’ red doublet, bring it to me now
i’ll wear it in the rigging as they fire across the bow
fetch me ol’ red doublet, it’s got the luck we need
for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me bleed!”

the captain of the frigate, a clever man was he
surprised the pirate sleeping and declared a victory
as he loaded up his cannons
the pirate none [?] around, the pirates caught him broadside
and he heard has he went down;

“fetch me ol’ red doublet, bring it to me now
i’ll wear it in the rigging as they fire across the bow
fetch me ol’ red doublet, it’s got the luck we need
for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me bleed!”

the germans sent a warship to hunt the pirates down
trying to catch the pirate’s ship they ran their own aground!
the captain cried “abandon ship!”
the crew they swam ashore
they all cried “ach du liebe!” (eins, zwei, drei)
when they heard old redcoat roar;

“fetch me ol’ red doublet, bring it to me now
i’ll wear it in the rigging as they fire across the bow
fetch me ol’ red doublet, it’s got the luck we need
for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me bleed!”

now queen isabella, she stepped into the fray
she armed her whole armada and dispatched them straight away
a hundred guns to one
old redcoat’s ship was torn in two
and high up in the crow’s nest he began his song anew;
(what’d he sing?)

he said fetch me old brown trousers, bring ’em to me now. (hmm?)
i’ll wear them in the rigging as they fire across our bow. (i don’t get it)
fetch me old brown trousers, i fear we may be hit!
for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me.. heave ho!

“fetch me ol’ red doublet, bring it to me now
i’ll wear it in the rigging as they fire across the bow
fetch me ol’ red doublet, it’s got the luck we need
for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me bleed!”

for even if they shoot me down they’ll never see me bleed…
heave_ho!
(brown trousers…oh, now i get it!)
