《Henry Martin》歌词

[00:00:01] Henry Martin - Burl Ives (布勒·埃夫斯)

[00:00:02] Written by：Cochran

[00:00:57] There were three brothers in Merry Scotland

[00:01:02] In Merry Scotland there were three

[00:01:06] And they did cast lots which of them should go

[00:01:10] Should go should go

[00:01:14] And turn robber all on the salt sea

[00:01:22] The lot it fell upon Henry Martin

[00:01:27] The youngest of all the three

[00:01:31] That he should turn robber all on the salt sea

[00:01:35] The salt sea the salt sea

[00:01:39] For to maintain his two brothers and he

[00:01:46] He had not been sailing but a long winter's night

[00:01:51] Part of a short winter's day

[00:01:55] Before he espied a stout lofty ship

[00:02:00] Lofty ship lofty ship

[00:02:04] Come abiding down on him straight way

[00:02:12] Hullo hullo cried Henry Martin

[00:02:16] What makes you sail so nigh

[00:02:20] I'm a rich merchant ship bound for fair London town

[00:02:25] London town London town

[00:02:29] Will you please for to let me pass by

[00:02:37] Oh no oh no cried Henry Martin

[00:02:41] That thing it never can be

[00:02:45] For I have turned robber all on the salt sea

[00:02:50] Salt sea the salt sea

[00:02:53] For to maintain my brothers and me

[00:03:00] Then lower your topsail and bottom your mizzen

[00:03:04] Bow yourselves under my lee

[00:03:08] Or I shall give to you a fast flowing ball

[00:03:13] Flowing ball flowing ball

[00:03:16] And your dear bodies drown in the salt sea

[00:03:23] With broadside and broadside and at it they went

[00:03:28] For fully two hours or three

[00:03:32] Till Henry Martin gave to her the deathshot

[00:03:36] The deathshot the deathshot

[00:03:40] And straight to the bottom went she

[00:03:49] Bad news bad news to Old England came

[00:03:53] Bad news to Old London town

[00:03:58] There's been a rich vessel and she's cast away

[00:04:03] Cast away cast away

[00:04:06] And all of the Merry men drowned
