Admiral Benbow

Come all you seamen bold
And draw near, and draw near
Come all you seamen bold
And draw near

It's of an Admiral's fame
Brave Benbow was his name
How he sailed up on the main
You shall hear, you shall hear

Brave Benbow he set sail
For to fight, for to fight
Brave Benbow he set sail
For to fight

Brave Benbow he set sail
In a keen and pleasant gale
But his captains they turn'd tail
In a fright, in a fright

The surgeon dressed his wounds
Benbow cried, Benbow cried
The surgeon dressed his wounds
Benbow cried:

"Let a cradle now in haste
On the quarterdeck be placed
That the enemy I may face
'Til I die, 'til I die
That the enemy I may face
'Til I die, 'til I die"
