the jolly rogers - the ship in distress كلمات أغنية

you seamen bold who plow the ocean
see dangers landsmen never know
it’s not for hon’r or a promotion;
no tongue can tell what they undergo
in the bl_sterous wind and the great dark waters
our ship went drifting upon the sea
her head gear gone, her rudder broken
which brought us to extremities

for fourteen days, heartsore and hungry
seeing but wild water and bitter sky
poor fellows they stood in a totter
casting lots as to which should die
their lot it fell on robert jackson
whose family is so very great
“i’m free to die, but oh, me comrades
let me keep look_out till the break of day.”
when dawn it broke the ship was sighted
our hearts were heavy with our coming task
he bravely came forth and spoke his last words
“now i die so that you may live”
he drew his last breath and fell to the deck
there was no joy at our table that day
our hunger gone, and death no longer knocking
only grief filled our [?] souls were bare

a full_dressed ship like the sun a_glittering
came bearing down, the nest roared
as soon as this good news was shouted
our hearts were filled with remorse and grief
our ship brought to, no longer drifting
safe in saint vincent, cap verde
you seamen all, who hear my story
may you’ll never suffer the like again

- the jolly rogers
