[00:14.84]There were three brothers in merry Scotland,
[00:18.91]In merry Scotland there were three,
[00:22.64]And they did cast lots which of them should go,
[00:26.71]should go, should go,
[00:29.77]And turn robber all on the salt sea.
[00:36.48]The lot it fell first upon Henry Martin,
[00:40.26]The youngest of all the three;
[00:44.04]That he should turn robber all on the salt sea,
[00:47.84]Salt sea, the salt sea.
[00:51.14]For to maintain his two brothers and he.
[01:06.50]He had not been sailing but a long winter's night
[01:10.49]And a part of a short winter's day,
[01:14.40]When he espied a stout lofty ship,
[01:17.96]lofty ship, lofty ship，
[01:21.21]Come abibing down on him straight way.
[01:29.83]Hullo! Hullo! cried Henry Martin,
[01:33.48]What makes you sail so nigh?
[01:37.14]I'm a rich merchant ship bound for fair London Town,
[01:40.79]London Town, London Town
[01:43.93]Would you please for to let me pass by?
[01:50.44]Oh no! Oh no! cried Henry Martin,
[01:54.15]That thing it never could be,
[01:57.72]For I have turned robber all on the salt sea
[02:01.99]Salt sea, the salt sea.
[02:05.16]For to maintain my two brothers and me.
[02:13.40]Come lower your topsail and brail up your mizz'n
[02:17.36]And bring your ship under my lee,
[02:21.08]Or I will give to you a full canon ball,
[02:24.51]Canon ball, canon ball,
[02:27.72]And all your dear bodies drown in the salt sea.
[02:36.46]Oh no! we won't lower our lofty topsail,
[02:40.46]Nor bring our ship under your lee,
[02:44.17]And you shan't take from us our rich merchant goods,
[02:47.93]Merchant goods, merchant goods
[02:51.53]Nor point our bold guns to the sea.
[03:06.65]Then broadside and broadside and at it they went
[03:10.44]For fully two hours or three,
[03:14.15]Till Henry Martin gave to them the deathshot,
[03:18.20]The deathshot, the deathshot,
[03:22.25]And straight to the bottom went she.
[03:32.49]Bad news, bad news, to old England came,
[03:36.48]Bad news to fair London Town,
[03:40.13]There's been a rich vessel and she's cast away,
[03:44.00]Cast away, cast away,
[03:49.45]And all of her merry men drown'd.
