DFarewell and adieu to Gyou, Spanish ALadies, FareAwell and adieu to you, ladies of DSpain; For Dwe've received orders for to Gsail for ol' AEngland, But we Dhope in a Gshort while to Asee you aDgain.
[Chorus]
DWe'll rant and we'll roar like Gtrue British Asailors, We'll Arant and we'll roar all on the salt Dsea. DUntil we strike soundings in the Gchannel of old AEngland; From DUshant to GScilly is Athirty five Dleagues.
We Dhove our ship to with the Gwind from sou'Awest, boys We Ahove our ship to, deep soundings to takeD; 'Twas Dforty-five fathoms, with a Gwhite sandy Abottom, So we Dsquared our Gmain yard and up Achannel did Dmake.
The Dfirst land we sighted Gwas called the ADodman, Next ARame Head off Plymouth, off Portsmouth the DWight; We Dsailed by Beachy, by GFairlight and ADover, And Dthen we Gbore up for the ASouth Foreland Dlight.
[Chorus]
DWe'll rant and we'll roar like Gtrue British Asailors, We'll Arant and we'll roar all on the salt Dsea. DUntil we strike soundings in the Gchannel of old AEngland; From DUshant to GScilly is Athirty five Dleagues.
Then the Dsignal was made for the Ggrand fleet to Aanchor, And Aall in the Downs that night for to Dlie; Let Dgo your shank painter, let Ggo your cat Astopper! Haul Dup your clewGgarnets, let Atacks and sheets Dfly!
Now Dlet ev'ry man drink Goff his full Abumper, And Alet ev'ry man drink off his full Dglass; We'll Ddrink and be jolly and Gdrown melanAcholy, And Dhere's to the Ghealth of each Atrue-hearted Dlass.
