Letra de Blow The Man Down
Come all ye young fellows that follow the sea To me weigh, hey, blow the man down And pray, pay attention and listen to me Give me some time to blow the man downI'm a deep water sailor just in from Hong Kong To me weigh, hey, blow the man down If you'll give me some rum I'll sing you a song Give me some time to blow the man downT'was on a Black Baller I first spent my time To me weigh, hey, blow the man down And on that Black Baller I wasted my prime Give me some time to blow the man down'Tis when a Black Baller's preparing for sea To me weigh, hey, blow the man down You'd split your sides laughing at the sights that you see Give me some time to blow the man downWith the tinkers and tailors and soldiers and all To me weigh, hey, blow the man down That ship for prime seamen onboard a Black Ball Give me some time to blow the man down'Tis when a Black Baller is clear of the land To me weigh, hey, blow the man down Our boatswain then gives us the word of command Give me some time to blow the man downLay aft is the cry to the break of the poop To me weigh, hey, blow the man down Or I'll help you along with the toe of my boot Give me some time to blow the man down'Tis larboard and starboard on the deck you will sprawl To me weigh, hey, blow the man down For kicking Jack Williams commands the Black Ball Give me some time to blow the man downAye first it's a fist and then it's a pall To me weigh, hey, blow the man down When you ship as a sailor aboard the Black Ball Give me some time to blow the man downBlow the man down, blow the man down Give me some time to blow the man down
