Come all you wild young men and a warning take by me
Never lead your single life astray or into bad company
As I myself have done, being all in the month of may
When i, as pressed by a sea captain, a privateer to trade
To the east indies we were bound to plunder the raging main
And its many the brave and a galliant ship we sent to a watery grave
Ah, for freeport we did steer, our provisions to renew
When we did spy a bold man-of-war sailing three feet to our two
Oh, she fired across our bows, ``heave to and dont refuse
Surrender now unto my command or else your lives youll lose
And our decks they were sputtered with blood
And the cannons did loudly roar
And broadside and broadside a long time we lay
Till we could fight no more
And a thousand times I wished meself alone,
All alone with me polly on the shore
Shes a tall and a slender girl with a dark and a-rolling eye
And here am i, a-bleeding on the deck
And for a sweet saint must die
Farewell, me family and me friends, likewise me polly too
Id never have crossed the salt sea wide
If Id have been ruled by you
And a thousand times I saw meself again,
All alone with me polly on the shore
