High barbaree
Burl ives
Look ahead, look astern, look the weather and the lee,
Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we.
I see a wreck to windward and a lofty ship to lee,
A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree.
Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we.
I see a wreck to windward and a lofty ship to lee,
A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree.
O are you a pirate or a man o'war? Cried we
Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we.
O no! I'm not a pirate, but a man o'war, cried he,
A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree.
Then back up your topsails and heave your vessel to
Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we.
For we have got some letters to be carried home by you.
A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree.
We'll back up our topsails and heave our vessel to
Blow high! Alow low! and so sailed we.
But only in some harbour and along the side of you.
A-sailing down all on the coasts of High Barbaree.
