the cruel ship's captain - bryan ferry lyrics

Loading...

a boy to me was bound apprenticed
because his parents they were poor
so i took him from st. james’ workhouse
all for to sail on the greenland sh0r-

one day this poor boy he did annoy me
nothing to him then did i say
but i rushed him to my frozen yardarm
and i kept him there ’til early next day

when his eyes and his t–th hang before me
with his hands and his feet down bowed
and with a tarry gasket there i k!lled him
for i would not hear his cries below
i would not hear his cries below

now all you sea captains that navyin’ here’
take a fair advantage by me
don’t abuse your young apprentice boys
or else its hanged you’d surely be
