W: 2. Fearless of danger I have been
W: \t When Ballets round me flew
W: The sculp holes filld with gore seen
W: \t Yet fear I never knew
W: Shall lubbers then attack our Tier
W: \t Thats lying in its birth
W: And rob us of what we hold dear
W: \t And prize the most on Earth.
W: 3. I'll furl their sails first at Mast head
W: \t When under weigh I'm going
W: For ne'er be it of Seamen said
W: \t They fear a Landsmans blowing
W: Then think not I'll my prize loose
W: \t That was so gay d'ye see
W: To fight for love I'd ne'er refuse
W: \t For King or Loyalty.
