《The Smuggler》歌词

[00:00:00] The Smuggler - Steve Travis/The Mersea Island Crew

[00:00:13] The boat rides south of Ailsa Craig in the waning of

[00:00:19] The light

[00:00:21] There's thirty men on monkey beach

[00:00:25] To make our burden

[00:00:28] Bright

[00:00:30] And there's thirty horse in Hazleholm with the halters

[00:00:35] On their heads

[00:00:38] All set this night up on your life if wind and water

[00:00:45] Speed

[00:00:47] Oh lass you have a cozy bed and cattle you have ten

[00:00:55] Can you not live a lawful life and live with lawful

[00:01:02] Men

[00:01:04] But must I use old homely goods while there's foreign

[00:01:09] Gear so fine

[00:01:12] Must I drink at the waterside and France so full of

[00:01:19] Wine

[00:01:21] Smugglers drink of the frenchmens wine and the darkest

[00:01:26] Night is the smugglers

[00:01:29] Time

[00:01:31] Away we ran from the excise man

[00:01:35] It's a smugglers life for me

[00:01:40] It's a smugglers life for me

[00:01:44] Though well I like to see you Kate with a baby on your

[00:01:51] Knee

[00:01:53] My heart is now with gallant crew that plough through

[00:01:59] The angry sea

[00:02:02] The hitter gale the tightest sail and the sheltered

[00:02:07] Bay or goal

[00:02:10] It's the wayward life it's the smugglers strife it's

[00:02:15] The joy of the smugglers

[00:02:17] Soul

[00:02:19] Smugglers drink of the frenchmens wine and the darkest

[00:02:24] Night is the smugglers

[00:02:26] Time

[00:02:29] Away we ran from the excise man

[00:02:33] It's a smugglers life for me

[00:02:38] It's a smugglers life for me

[00:03:00] And when at last the dawn comes up and the cargo safely

[00:03:06] Stored

[00:03:08] Like sinless saints to church we'll go God's mercy to

[00:03:15] Afford

[00:03:17] And It's champagne fine for communion wine and the

[00:03:21] Parson drinks it too

[00:03:25] With a sly wink prays "forgive these men for they know

[00:03:30] Not what they do"

[00:03:34] Smugglers drink of the frenchmens wine and the darkest

[00:03:39] Night is the smugglers

[00:03:41] Time

[00:03:44] Away we ran from the excise man

[00:03:49] It's a smugglers life for me

[00:03:53] It's a smugglers life for me

[00:03:57] It's a smugglers life for me
