jerry bryant - a new sea song (sweethearts and wives) lyrics
our boatswain calls out for his bold british heroes
come, listen awhile to what i do sing
let every man toss off his full bumper
and drink a good health unto george our king
and drink a good health to suke, moll, and kitty
with mirth and good liquor we’ll lead merry lives
we will not be afraid to kiss or to venture
on sat+rday night to our sweethearts and wives
our ship she’s in harbour, brought safe to an anchor
the boats are alongside, they begin for to throng
the girls that are in’m are crying for husbands
the one sings out “jemmy,” the other calls “john,”
while the other bawls out, “whеre is my dear harry?
if i do not see him, may i nevеr thrive!”
‘longside of those girls you may lie, but not marry
on sat+rday night, to our sweethearts and wives
our ship she’s unriggéd, all ready for docking
straightway on board of those hulks we repair
where we work hard all day, and at night go a+kissing
jack tar is safe moored in the arms of his dear
straightway to the town of venus we’ll venture
our spirits to freshen, our bodies to thrive
we will not be afraid to kiss, nor yet venture
on sat+rday night to our sweethearts and wives
our ship she is all riggéd and ready for sea, boys
the girls that’s on board they begin to look blue
the boats are alongside to take them on shore, boys
says one to the other, “girls, what shall we d ?”
then we put to sea, with a fresh+blowing breeze, boys
and through the foaming white billows do roar
we paid off all debts with the flying fore+topsail
bid adieu to these girls and the rogues on the shore
now we are on the seas, like bold hearts of thunder
now we are on the seas we’ll rant and roar
we will make all the french and the spaniards knock under
when our two+and+thirties begin for to roar
for to handle their dollars my fingers are itching
if i don’t be at them may i never thrive
we will not be like misers, to h++rd up our riches
but we’ll spend them on shore with our sweethearts and wives
