[00:01.265] To the New York Trader I did belong
[00:05.915] She was fit for sea both stout and strong
[00:10.146] Well manned, well rigged, well fit for sea
[00:14.911] Bound for New York in Amerikay
[00:20.935]
[00:22.371] On the 4th of March we did set sail
[00:26.805] All on a sweet and a pleasant gale
[00:30.363] With hearts undaunted we set for sea
[00:35.280] Bound for New York in Amerikay
[00:41.670]
[00:42.718] Our cruel captain as we did find
[00:47.070] Left half of our provisions behind
[00:50.599] Our cruel captain, you'll understand
[00:55.604] Meant to starve us all before we reached the land
[01:02.072]
[01:02.776] As our captain in his cabin lay
[01:07.228] A voice came to him and this did say
[01:11.271] "Prepare yourself and ship's company
[01:16.198] For tomorrow night you must lie with me"
[01:22.567]
[01:23.578] Our captain woke in a terrible fright
[01:27.911] It being the first part of the night
[01:31.517] Loud for his bosun he did call
[01:36.339] To him related the secrets all
[01:42.827]
[01:43.489] "Bosun" says he, "it does grieve my heart
[01:47.951] To think I have acted the villain's part
[01:51.546] To take what was not my lawful due
[01:56.303] For to starve the passengers and the ship's crew”
[02:03.475]
[02:04.187] "There's one more thing that I have to tell
[02:08.675] When I in Waterford town did dwell
[02:12.151] I killed my master, a merchant there
[02:16.962] All for the sake of his lady fair
[02:23.246]
[02:24.108] I killed my wife and my children three
[02:28.215] All for that cursed jealousy
[02:32.617] And on my servant I lay the blame
[02:37.483] And he was hanged in grief and shame"
[02:49.694]
[02:51.684] "Oh, captain, captain, if that be so
[02:56.131] Pray let none of the ship's crew know
[03:01.841] But keep that secret all in your breast
[03:06.523] And pray the Lord may grant you rest"
[03:16.244]
[03:24.190] The very next morning a storm did rise
[03:28.566] Which to our seamen did much surprise
[03:32.166] The seas came over both fore and aft
[03:36.790] Till scarce one man on deck was left
[03:42.709]
[03:43.445] And then the bosun, he did declare
[03:47.521] The captain was a murderer
[03:50.799] This so enraged the whole ship's crew
[03:55.284] They overboard our captain threw
[04:01.138]
[04:02.000] All of a sudden a calm was there
[04:05.956] Our good little ship onwards did steer
[04:09.282] The winds abated and calmed the seas
[04:13.710] And we sailed on for Amerikay
[04:19.316]
[04:20.406] And when we reached that New York shore
[04:24.549] Our good little ship for to repair
[04:27.771] The people wondered much to see
[04:32.239] Such a poor distressed and shipwreck crew were we
[04:38.753]
[04:39.505] So sailors all where'er you be
[04:43.600] A warning pray you take by me
[04:46.844] As you love your life won't yous take good care
[04:51.380] And never go sailing with a murderer
