[00:00.730]Come all you wild young men and a warning take by me
[00:10.080]Never lead your single life astray or into bad company
[00:18.940]As I myself have done
[00:23.430]Being all in the month of May
[00:28.180]When I as pressed by a sea captain
[00:32.690]A privateer to trade
[00:39.360]To the East Indies we were bound
[00:43.980]To plunder the raging main
[00:48.410]And it's many the brave and a galliant ship
[00:52.840]We sent to a watery grave
[00:57.340]Ah for Freeport we did steer
[01:01.640]Our provisions to renew
[01:06.510]When we did spy a bold man-of-war
[01:11.310]Sailing three feet to our two
[01:33.530]Oh she fired across our bows Heave to and don't refuse
[01:42.690]Surrender now unto my command or else your lives you'll lose
[01:51.450]And our decks they were sputtered with blood and the cannons did loudly roar
[02:00.300]And broadside and broadside a long time we lay till we could fight no more
[02:09.790]And a thousand times I wished myself alone
[02:16.660]All alone with my Polly on the shore
[04:02.411]She's a tall and a slender girl with a dark and a-rolling eye
[04:11.521]And here am I
[04:13.711]A-bleeding on the deck and for a sweet saint must lie
[04:20.571]Farewell my family and my friends
[04:25.081]Likewise my barley too
[04:29.521]I'd never have crossed the salt sea wide if I'd have been ruled by you
[04:38.621]And a thousand times I saw myself again
[04:45.301]All alone with my Polly on the shore
