<pre><font size='+2'>BARRETT S PRIVATEERS lyrics ROGERS STAN</font><br>Oh, the year was 1778, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
A letter of marque come from the king,<br />
To the scummiest vessel I`d ever seen,<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
Oh, Elcid Barrett cried the town, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
For twenty brave men all fishermen who<br />
would make for him the Antelope`s crew<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
The Antelope sloop was a sickening sight,HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
She`d a list to the port and and her sails in rags<br />
And the cook in scuppers with the staggers and the jags<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
On the King`s birthday we put to sea, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
We were 91 days to Montego Bay<br />
Pumping like madmen all the way<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
On the 96th day we sailed again, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
When a bloody great Yankee hove in sight<br />
With our cracked four pounders we made to fight<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
The Yankee lay low down with gold, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
She was broad and fat and loose in the stays<br />
But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
Then at length we stood two cables away, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
Our cracked four pounders made an awful din<br />
But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
The Antelope shook and pitched on her side, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
Barrett was smashed like a bowl of eggs<br />
And the Maintruck carried off both me legs<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.<br />
<br />
So here I lay in my 23rd year, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!<br />
It`s been 6 years since we sailed away<br />
And I just made Halifax yesterday<br />
<br />
God damn them all!<br />
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold<br />
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears<br />
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier<br />

Oh, the year was 1778, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
A letter of marque come from the king,
To the scummiest vessel I`d ever seen,

God damn them all!
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.

Oh, Elcid Barrett cried the town, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
For twenty brave men all fishermen who
would make for him the Antelope`s crew

God damn them all!
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.

The Antelope sloop was a sickening sight,HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
She`d a list to the port and and her sails in rags
And the cook in scuppers with the staggers and the jags

God damn them all!
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.

On the King`s birthday we put to sea, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
We were 91 days to Montego Bay
Pumping like madmen all the way

God damn them all!
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.

On the 96th day we sailed again, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
When a bloody great Yankee hove in sight
With our cracked four pounders we made to fight

God damn them all!
I was told we`d cruise the seas for American gold
We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.

The Yankee lay low down with gold, HOW I WISH I WAS IN SHERBROOKE NOW!
She was broad and fat and loose in the stays
But to catch her took the Antelope two whole days

God damn them all!

We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.

Our cracked four pounders made an awful din
But with one fat ball the Yank stove us in

God damn them all!

We`d fire no guns-shed no tears
Now I`m a broken man on a Halifax pier
The last of Barrett`s Privateers.
